Outcomes of Pediatric Cataract Surgery in the Copperbelt Province of Zambia
Conclusions:Visual outcomes after pediatric cataract surgery in Zambia were comparable and satisfactory. Cost of treatment was a barrier, but delay did not adversely affect outcome.[J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53(5):311 –317.] (Source: Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus)

Variability in Response to Bilateral Medial Rectus Recessions in Infantile Esotropia
Conclusions:Surgical success with bilateral medial rectus recessions in infantile esotropia is limited by the high variability in surgical dose-response.[J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53(5):305 –310.] (Source: Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus)

Intraocular Pressure in Premature Low Birth Weight Infants
Conclusions:IOP is higher and CCT is thicker in premature infants compared to adults; however, there was no correlation between IOP and CCT.[J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53(5):300 –304.] (Source: Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus)

Congenital Nasolacrimal Duct Obstruction: Comparison of Two Different Treatment Algorithms
Conclusions:Primary probing for CNLDO has a high success rate that is not adversely affected by increasing age. This study also indicates that if initial probing is unsuccessful, nasolacrimal intubation rather than repeat probing yields a significantly higher success rate.[J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2016;53(5):285 –291.] (Source: Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus)

Choroidal Freckling in Pediatric Patients Affected by Neurofibromatosis Type 1
Greater understanding of choroidal freckling in patients affected by neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) has changed the previous belief that choroidal lesions are unusual in eyes with this disease. In fact, the high frequency of freckling suggests that the choroid is a structure commonly affected in patients with NF1. A review of patients aged 16 years or younger was performed. Recent studies using near-infrared reflectance imaging have shown that choroidal freckling frequently occurred in pediatric patients. As a result of these findings, some authors have suggested that choroidal freckling should be considered as a new diagn...
