Examination of visual induced potentials on reversible chess-pattern in 46 children with bilateral congenital zonular cataracts before and after surgical intervention has revealed correlation between these potentials and degree of lens opacification. After cataract extraction, positive dynamics of the potentials was observed in case of slightly opacified lenses and was absent in intensive lens opacification. The authors consider it reasonable to use visual induced potentials for prognosticating visual results after surgical treatment of bilateral congenital zonular cataracts, this being of particular importance for early surgical interventions.

D014792 Visual Acuity Clarity or sharpness of OCULAR VISION or the ability of the eye to see fine details. Visual acuity depends on the functions of RETINA, neuronal transmission, and the interpretative ability of the brain. Normal visual acuity is expressed as 20/20 indicating that one can see at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that distance. Visual acuity can also be influenced by brightness, color, and contrast. Acuities, Visual,Acuity, Visual,Visual Acuities
D015348 Vision, Binocular The blending of separate images seen by each eye into one composite image. Binocular Vision
