To analyse the visual outcome in patients of paediatric uveitis who underwent cataract surgery; 2. To analyse the post-operative complications of cataract surgery in paediatric uveitis.Retrospective observational study was done on patients of uveitis who underwent cataract surgery. Patients who were under 18 years and co-operative for examination were included.They underwent Phacoaspiration with posterior chamber IOL implantation by a single surgeon after 3 months of activity free interval, BCVA(in Log MAR) in every follow up, anterior segment examination using slit lamp and posterior segment examination using IDO, post-operative complications and Intra ocular pressure was recorded using Noncontact tonometer.Uveitis was classified using the SUN classification of uveitis. Use of corticosteroids, biologics and immunosuppressive drug were collected at each visit. Total of 18 subjects diagnosed with cataract as a complication of uveitis & undergone cataract surgery were studied (6 were females, 12 were males) 9 had anterior uveitis, 1had intermediate uveitis and 5 had pan uveitis. JRA (66.7%) was the most common cause identified. Improvement in vision from baseline was observed post-surgery at the end of first, third and 6th month which was statistically significant (P- Value <0.05). Average duration of disease before they underwent surgery was 18 months. Most common post op complication was posterior capsular opacification (50 %), others include secondary glaucoma (38.9), exudative retinal detachment (5.6%) and Vitritis (22.2%)Unlike adult uveitic patients, the surgical management of paediatric uveitic cataract is both challenging and controversial, and the surgery itself has been associated with poor visual outcomes. However, our study had shown that with implantation of IOL, good immunosuppressants and control of the disease can give these children a good visual outcome.","PeriodicalId":14485,"journal":{"name":"IP International Journal of Ocular Oncology and Oculoplasty","volume":"69 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140973886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This cross-sectional study was carried out from May 2021 to April 2022 in a tertiary eye hospital of Bangladesh. This study included patients with 6-15 years of age who visited at Vision Therapy clinic. CISS-score was used to identify the asthenopia complaints and reading difficulties while having a normal vision and normal retinal function only selected for recruitment. Reading error, accuracy and reading speed were assessed with an N-notation chart with an N6 target size and the time taken to complete the task was recorded with a stopwatch. Both univariate and bivariate tables are used for analysis. Statistics analysis was performed accordingly, and the level of significance used was at 0.05. Out of 200 subjects, 46.5% boys and 53.5% girls. Of the total, 15.5% had NVF. The mean age of the participants was 12.04 (±2.44) years. Children with AVF had a higher number of reading errors and non-significant negative correlation (AVF=7.64 (±5.19); NVF 6.55 (±3.67); (r = -1.00, p=0.157). Lower Reading accuracy was noted in AVF as correlated to NVF and non-significant negative correlation (AVF=86.11 (±14.84); NVF=86.43 (±13.12); (r= -0.008, p=0.912). Similarly, lower reading speed was noted in AVF as correlated to NVF and non-significant negative correlation (AVF=79.47 (±39.20) wpm; NVF=84.51±36.84 wpm; (r= -0.047, p=0.507). A statistically significant difference was seen between AVF and NVF (p=0.001 at a 95% Confidence Interval of the differences). Children in the 1 to 5 grades presented a higher risk of reading impairment than the 6 to 10grades. Higher reading speed (112±20.69wpm) was noted in 10 grade.
