Purpose: To determine and analyze the 100 most cited articles in pediatric ophthalmology.

Methods: A literature search was conducted using the ISI Web of Science database on the top 100 most cited articles in pediatric ophthalmology.

Results: The 100 most cited articles were published between 1941 and 2018, with the greatest number published in both 2005 and 2012. A total of 29,731 citations were generated during the study period. There has been a significant increase in citations annually since 1941, with a peak number of citations in 2021 with 2,629 citations. Myopia, retinopathy of prematurity, and other forms of refractive error were the topics most studied and cited in these articles. Most of the articles were classified as either large cohort prospective/retrospective studies (34) or randomized clinical trials (19), with case reports/series being the least frequent (7). (23), (22), and (22) published the majority of the articles. Institutions that conducted the majority of the studies presented include the National Eye Institute (10), the Ohio State University College of Optometry (9), and the Oregon Health & Science University (6).

Conclusions: This bibliometric analysis provides a unique historical perspective of the literature in the field of pediatric ophthalmology that has not been studied before. The research in the field of pediatric ophthalmology is advancing quickly, with most articles and citations occurring within the past 15 years. The strong focus on prospective cohort studies and clinical trials reveals the importance of advancing the treatment of critical disease within the field of pediatric ophthalmology. .
