Childhood cataract is a disease that affects the development of children's vision. It is divided into infants and adolescents according to the age of onset. Surgery is the main treatment, but the vision after surgery is difficult to reach the level of healthy children. Macular dysplasia is an important factor affecting postoperative visual acuity. In recent years, with the development of optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography, more and more research has been done on macular development of children's cataract. The retinal structure in the macular area of children with cataract is abnormal, and the early inflammatory reaction after surgery can also lead to structural changes. In addition, insufficient blood supply to the macular area may affect retinal structure and function. The mechanism by which childhood cataract affects macular structure is still unclear and needs further study. Understanding the relationship between macular structure and vision prognosis is helpful to develop more effective treatment and improve the vision prognosis of children.
