Introduction And Primary Objective: Pediatric rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) presents unique challenges in diagnosis and management. A thorough evaluation of family, medical, and ocular history is helpful, as systemic and genetic conditions can predispose children to RRD. Trauma, high myopia, and history of prematurity are also common risk factors.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluated the long-term outcomes of scleral fixation of aniridic black diaphragm intraocular lenses (BDIOL) in 38 eyes affected by aniridia and aphakia due to trauma or congenital conditions.
  • After an average follow-up of 28 months, there was a significant improvement in visual acuity, and patients reported reduced glare and photophobia, though some experienced complications like elevated intraocular pressure and corneal decompensation.
  • The findings suggest that scleral fixation of BDIOL is an effective solution for patients lacking capsular support, providing good vision quality with a low rate of complications, regardless of prior surgical history.
