Abstract
A healthy neonate born with unilateral cataract was operated upon on Life Day 4. Visual correction and testing were initiated promptly. Resolution showed continuous improvement in the normal eye, with no improvement noted in the operated eye until adequate visual correction was provided. Following correction there was prompt marked improvement of visual resolution.
