Postoperative longitudinal refractive changes in children under 8 years of age with ectopia lentis and Marfan Syndrome.

A tendency toward increasing postoperative myopic was demonstrated in children with ectopia lentis and MFS, with the greatest myopic shift in the younger age groups. If the goal is to reach emmetropia by age 8, the immediate postoperative hypermetropic targets should be 1.75D for 4 years old, 1D for 5 years old, 0.5D for 6 years old, 0 to 0.25D for 7 years old.
