Pediatric cataracts.
The presentation, etiology, diagnostic examination, and management of pediatric cataracts are discussed in this article. If untreated, cataracts result in significant visual deprivation. Evaluation of the pupillary light reflex should become an integral part of every pediatrician's physical examination. Patients should be referred for a complete eye examination whenever a cataract is suspected because early intervention may be the most important factor in determining a good visual outcome.
