Chen J, et al. - In this retrospective clinical study, investigators evaluated 49 cases to examine the consequences of variations in eye-related parameters, adverse events and the annual cost of rigid gas permeable contact lens (RGPCL) and spectacles correction in newborns with monocular aphakia after congenital cataract surgery. They classified the cases into 3 groups viz, group 1, subjects with unilateral aphakia using RGPCL; group 2, cases with persistent fetal vasculature (PFV) using RGPCL, and group 3, candidates with spectacles. They suggested RGPCL is an efficient optical correction method for subjects with monocular aphakia after congenital cataract surgery. They discarded spectacles as an ideal optical correction. They noticed no improvement in strabismus or nystagmus in outpatients with PFV.
