Endoilluminator-assisted pediatric cataract surgery with hazy cornea.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the usefulness of endoilluminator in pediatric cataract with hazy corneas. We describe a series of three cases of pediatric cataract where visualization of intraocular structures was inadequate under the operating microscope. The endoilluminator was held at the limbus with light directed obliquely to visualize the details of intraocular structures against the hazy cornea using oblique illumination.

Small lens for a big eye: Successful management of anterior megalophthalmos.

We report a case of anterior megalophthalmos and complicated cataract, with apparently smaller lens in both eyes. The right eye had spontaneous retinal detachment. The child underwent cataract surgery in both the eyes with retinal detachment surgery in the right eye.
