Abstract

In the light of findings associated with "deprivation amblyopia" early surgery for total congenital cataract appears desirable, if possible in the first months of life. Surgery was performed on a total of seven eyes of infants - with phacoemulsification via the pars plana - before the patients were six months old. The special features of the surgical method employed and the experience gained in using it are discussed.
