Congenital Cataract Surgery Treatment of choice: Lens aspiration by manual SICS technique or by phaco-emucification technique. Lensectomy can be done in total cataract with retinal detachment or ROP or any congenital retinal condition where lens aspiration can't be done. IOL should be put in every child above 2 yrs of age and even in less than 2 year of age, less than 6 month avoid putting IOL.
