Traumatic cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation in children.

We evaluated our experience of intraocular lens implantation in 22 children with uniocular traumatic cataract. Good visual acuity was achieved in a large proportion of the children despite associated corneal opacities and several intraoperative and postoperative complications. Our study suggests that intraocular lens implantation may have a major role in management of monocular cataracts in children.
