Anterior Capsular Plaque in Congenital Cataract: Occurrence, Morphology, Immunofluorescence, and Ultrastructure

Abstract

The occurrence of ACP in pediatric eyes undergoing cataract surgery for congenital cataract was 11.5%. ACP was more associated with mature cataract. Epithelial mesenchymal transdifferentiation of lens epithelial cells may be involved in the development of congenital ACP.
