  • Title: The need for intraocular lens implantation in children.
    Author: Hiles DA.
    Journal: Ophthalmic Surg; 1977 Jun; 8(3):162-9. PubMed ID: 904870.
    Abstract:
    The intraocular lens offers an additional experimental parameter to be considered for the visual rehabilitation of children with traumatic or unilateral infantile cataracts. The disadvantages of aphakic spectacles or contact lens and amblyopia have committed many of these eyes to the status of visual cripples. In this series of 41 patients, with a maximum of 24 months follow-up, it has been concluded that the IOL may be successfully implanted.
