Results of genetic, infectious, and metabolic testing in the work-up of bilateral pediatric cataracts at a tertiary pediatric hospital

Children with unexplained bilateral cataracts routinely undergo testing for genetic, infectious, or metabolic etiologies. However, PEDIG has recently recommended reevaluation of this standard work-up. In this study, we evaluate whether such testing was useful in identifying the cause of bilateral pediatric cataracts at our institution.
