    Axial length growth is significantly influenced by congenital cataract, which causes visual form deprivation and alters ocular development.

  • 2

    The study analyzed 81 patients with unilateral congenital cataract, focusing on factors affecting axial length differences between affected and fellow eyes.

  • 3

    Patients were categorized into four age groups to assess the impact of age at surgery on axial length development and form deprivation duration.

  • 4

    The degree of lens opacity was classified into complete and partial cataracts, with implications for axial length and treatment prognosis.

  • 5

    Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS, ensuring robust evaluation of the associations between axial length and various influencing factors.
