[The prognosis of the visual results of treating children with congenital cataracts based on visual evoked potentials].
Examination of visual induced potentials on reversible chess-pattern in 46 children with bilateral congenital zonular cataracts before and after surgical intervention has revealed correlation between these potentials and degree of lens opacification. After cataract extraction, positive dynamics of the potentials was observed in case of slightly opacified lenses and was absent in intensive lens opacification. The authors consider it reasonable to use visual induced potentials for prognosticating visual results after surgical treatment of bilateral congenital zonular cataracts, this being of particular importance for early surgical interventions.
