Abstract
The relationship between the anterior vitreous interface and the posterior capsule has received increasing attention in the past decade. The advent of integrated intraoperative optical coherence tomography has allowed a real-time opportunity to grasp this dynamic understanding. Here we describe the normal anatomy of this interface in children and then demonstrate the variation in this interface with different forms of pediatric cataract, namely a posterior plaque and posterior capsular opacity due to abnormal adherence to the vitreous face. The authors describe these changes using meticulous annotation. An understanding of these differences will aid the surgeon in managing pediatric cataracts in a more confident and safe manner.
