Abstract:Aphakic glaucoma,which is one of the major complications following congenital cataract extraction,has a relatively higher prevalence. Refractory glaucomatic factors are the most significant challenges to further improving visual prognosis and living quality after cataract surgery. Causality between congenital cataract surgery and aphakic glaucoma has been identified,while its pathophysiology is largely not understood. Various risk factors may be associated with aphakic glaucoma. To have a better understanding of the disease,the research progress on aphakic glaucoma following congenital cataract extraction,including incidence,etiology,pathophysiology,risk factors,diagnosis,management and its impact on living quality of children,is reviewed in this article.
