Table 4 Bilateral congenital cataract, but IOL or vision in one eye only.

Patient no Sex R/L Age at op (weeks) IOL power (D) Axial length (mm) Refraction Final visit (months postop) Final postop acuity

Refractions are mean spherical equivalents. IOL power corrected for an “A” constant of 118.0.

Patient 8 had bilateral cataract but an implant in the left eye only. Patient 16 developed an early left endophthalmitis and no subsequent vision recordable from this eye.
