What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the incidence of glaucoma after congenital cataract surgery

    A Kaplan-Meier analysis was used

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Risk factors of glaucoma after congenital cataract surgery

    Piecewise exponential survival models with mixed effects (PEWSMME) were used.(variables including demographic characters, surgery categories, clinical history, length of follow up).

    Measured: baseline
