Purpose: The aim of the current study was to assess the results of cataract surgery involving implantation of foldable intraocular

lenses in children.

Material and methods: Cataract surgery with foldable lenses was performed in 60 children. Postoperative visual acuity, endothelial cell density, corneal pachymetry, postoperative astigmatism and complications were analyzed.

Results: Quick visual recovery was observed in children after surgery. Only a few postoperative complications occurred.

Conclusions: The foldable intraocular lenses are easy to insert. The surgical procedure with foldable lens implantation is a useful

and safe method of treatment.
