Description

This is the first reference textbook to address the considerable challenges of managing cataracts in children. Content covers all details of pediatric cataracts and surgical techniques to treat and prevent visual impairment. Readers explore patient work-up, diagnosis, surgical techniques, and potential complications. Newly emerging topics, such as temporary polypseudophakia, multifocal lenses, implant biocompatibility, intracapsular rings, and the use of capsular dyes in pediatric cataract surgery, are discussed in detail. Numerous tables and line diagrams and more than 200 full-color photographs clarify concepts.
