title: [Diabetic cataract during the first year of diabetes - report of the case].
abstract: Diabetic cataract rarely concerns children. Its occurrence is usually caused by a genetic predisposition as well as a long-term decompensation of diabetes. Cases of cataract in children during the first year of diabetes are exceptional, therefore this case is presented. During the ophtalmological examination bilateral retrocapsular cataract was diagnosed in 12-year-old girl with an eleven-month history of diabetes type 1. Previous ophtalmological examination had not shown any abnormalities. The poor metabolic control of diabetes was observed during this time (avg. HbA1C - 8.2%).
