Treatment of traumatic cataract in children –a) ECCE + IOLb) Lensectomy c) Contact lensd) Glasses
Correct Answer: a
Description: Traumatic cataract in children is a common cause of unilateral loss of vision.
Penetrating injuries are usually more common than blunt injuries.
At the time of presentation after trauma to eye, primary repair of the corneal or scleral wound is usually preferred.
Cataract surgery (ECCE) with IOL implantation is performed later following complete evaluation of damage to the intraocular structures by ancillary methods such as B-scan ultrasonography.
