Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Here, we conducted a nonrandomized clinical trial aims to evaluate and compare the prognosis of visual function in children of these two types of IOL implantation over a three-year postoperative period.

toric group

Name of Intervention: Implantation of AcrySof IQ Toric Intraocular Lens (IOL) SN6AT3-T9 Manufacturer: Alcon Laboratories, Inc.

Details of Intervention:

The intervention involves the surgical implantation of a toric intraocular lens (IOL) in pediatric cataract patients. This specific IOL model (SN6AT3-T9) is designed to correct astigmatism.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Toric IOL implantation

Intervention Type DEVICE

All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon (J.Y.) using a standardized surgical technique (phacoemulsification for cataract extraction+ IOL implantation + anterior vitrectomy) under general anesthesia. Scleral tunnel incision was created firstly. Thereafter, 5.0-5.2mm anterior capsule capsulorrhexis, and cataract aspiration were performed. A single-piece hydrophobic acrylic IOL (SN6AT3-T9) was implanted into the capsular bag. After the corneal incision was closed with 10-0 sutures, a posterior capsulectomy of 3-4 mm and anterior vitrectomy were performed through the pars plana using 25-gauge instrumentation with high cutting frequency (3,000 to 4,000 cuts per minute) and low aspiration pressure (300 to 350 mm Hg) in all eyes. A 3.5-4.0 mm posterior capsule capsulorrhexis and anterior vitrectomy were performed in patients.

non-toric group

Name of Intervention: Implantation of AcrySof IQ Hydrophobic Acrylic Intraocular Lens (IOL) SN60WF Manufacturer: Alcon Laboratories, Inc.

Details of Intervention:

The control intervention involves the surgical implantation of a non-toric, hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) in pediatric cataract patients. This IOL model (SN60WF) provides clear vision but does not correct pre-existing corneal astigmatism.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

A 3.5-4.0 mm posterior capsule capsulorrhexis and anterior vitrectomy were performed in patients.
