Despite improved visual acuity results in infants undergoing early surgery for monocular congenital cataracts, virtually all reports indicate a lack of binocular vision and the presence of strabismus in these patients. We report herein the presence of motor fusion and stereopsis in patients who have undergone early surgery for monocular congenital cataracts. Of 13 patients with congenital cataracts who were operated on by age 9 weeks, five (38%) had essentially straight eyes and evidence of motor fusion with a minimum of 1 year of follow-up. Three (60%) of five patients demonstrated sensory fusion, two with Titmus testing and one with Randot Stereo Acuity (Stereo Optical Co Inc, Chicago, Ill) of 250 seconds of arc. We conclude that binocular fusion and stereo visual acuity are obtainable in patients with monocular congenital cataracts.
