During the physical examination at the kindergarten, both children were found to have abnormal vision, but Ms. Lu, the mother of twin sisters Chenchen (pseudonym) and Xixi (pseudonym), did not pay much attention to it. Until the past week, she found that the sisters always looked very close to things and would fall down for no reason when walking. Then she took the sisters to the hospital for treatment, and the examination found that they both suffered from congenital cataracts. Chenchen (pseudonym) and Xixi (pseudonym), 5-year-old twins, are from Xianning, Hubei. Two months ago, the sisters were found to have abnormal vision during a physical examination at kindergarten. Their mother, Ms. Lu, did not pay much attention to it at first and did not take them to the hospital for treatment. Until the past week, Chenchen and Xixi always looked very close to things and often fell for no reason when walking. The mother carefully observed that the eyes of the two children looked dull, so she quickly took them to the Aier Eye Hospital affiliated to Wuhan University for treatment. Through examination, Chenchen and Xixi were diagnosed with congenital cataracts in both eyes and needed surgical treatment. On November 2 and 3, Dr. Wang Yong, deputy director of the hospital and chief physician of cataract and presbyopia, successfully performed femtosecond laser cataract removal and lens implantation on the two sisters. Currently, the sisters' vision is recovering, and they will need to cooperate with amblyopia training in the future. "Congenital cataracts are one of the main causes of blindness and visual disability in children. The incidence rate among infants and young children is about 0.5%, which seriously affects children's growth and learning. If not treated in time, the children may suffer from amblyopia or even lifelong disability due to the obstruction of the cataract, which will also have an adverse effect on their future work." Dr. Wang Yong said that most patients with congenital cataracts develop the disease slowly and generally do not feel any discomfort, especially children, who will not tell about their condition, so parents can easily ignore their children's eye problems. Dr. Wang Yong emphasized that parents should observe their children's behavior more often and take them to a regular hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible if they find any abnormalities. At the same time, parents should take their children to a professional ophthalmology hospital for professional eye examinations and keep records to ensure early detection, early intervention, and early treatment of any vision problems. |
