NCT05136209

Brief Summary

Selecting the appropriate surgical approach for congenital cataracts presents challenging for ophthalmologists. This prospective, randomized controlled study aims to compare the prognosis of posterior continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (PCCC) with or without anterior vitrectomy (A-Vit) in treating congenital cataracts.

Study Arms (2)

PCCC procedure without A-vit

EXPERIMENTAL

Procedure/Surgery: PCCC procedure without A-vit ACCC + I / A + PCCC or ACCC + I / A +PCCC + IOL

Procedure: PCCC procedure without A-vit

PCCC+A-Vit procedure

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Procedure/Surgery: PCCC+A-Vit procedure ACCC + I / A + PCCC + A-vit or ACCC + I / A +PCCC + IOL + A-vit

Procedure: PCCC+A-Vit procedure

Interventions

In this randomized clinical trial, patients receive cataract surgery on both eyes on the same day. For each patient, one eye is randomly assigned to undergo PCCC+A-Vit procedure, while the fellow eye is undergoing PCCC procedure without A-Vit.
