The present review will summarize briefly the recent advances in diagnostic tools, surgical techniques, and ophthalmic medications as they relate to the pediatric patient. The review will highlight results from studies that have investigated these new technologies and techniques.
In the past several years there has been a plethora of literature on the application of new technologies and surgical techniques in children. New tools have been used for everything from gathering normative data about the pediatric eye to using the technologies to study diseases such as glaucoma and ocular tumors. Results of surgical techniques such as small-incision cataract surgery, sutureless vitrectomy, and refractive surgery are now reported with regularity in the pediatric ophthalmology literature.
In the past 10 years pediatric ophthalmology has made significant advances. Technology has enabled us to qualify and quantify disease states more efficiently, and to explore new surgical techniques for disease processes that were formerly considered relatively untreatable.
本综述将简要总结与儿科患者相关的诊断工具、手术技术和眼科药物方面的最新进展。该综述将重点介绍研究这些新技术和技术的研究结果。
在过去几年中,有大量关于新技术和手术技术在儿童中应用的文献。从收集有关小儿眼部的标准数据到使用这些技术研究青光眼和眼部肿瘤等疾病,新工具被用于各个方面。小儿眼科文献现在定期报道诸如小切口白内障手术、无缝线玻璃体切除术和屈光手术等手术技术的结果。
在过去10年中,小儿眼科取得了重大进展。技术使我们能够更有效地对疾病状态进行定性和定量,并探索针对以前被认为相对难以治疗的疾病过程的新手术技术。
