Overview

Case series reveals improved visual outcomes with enhanced monofocal lenses in select children, suggesting their safety and effectiveness.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of enhanced monofocal lens implants in children with cataracts.
  • Retrospective case series design
  • Involved 6 eyes of 5 pediatric patients aged 7 to 15 years
  • All patients underwent cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation using TECNIS Eyehance EML
  • Visual acuity and stereopsis were assessed post-operatively.
  • All 6 eyes demonstrated improved distance visual acuity
  • 3 of 6 eyes maintained near vision within 3 lines of distance acuity
  • 1 eye achieved uncorrected near acuity of 20/40
  • 4 of 5 patients had uncorrected stereopsis of 400 arc seconds
