Abstract

Objective: To determine the rate of cataracts in patients one year after kidney transplantation at Military Hospital 103 and to comment on some factors related to cataracts. Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study of 111 kidney transplant patients (222 eyes) at Military Hospital 103 to evaluate the cataract status and some factors affecting before and after transplantation. Results: Before kidney transplantation, the rate of cataracts was 16.2%; after transplantation, it increased to 23% in the right eye, and in the left eye increased from 13.5% to 28.8%. The influencing factors were the duration of renal failure, prolonged dialysis time, high blood urea-creatinine concentration, diabetes mellitus after kidney transplantation, and prednisolone dose. Conclusion: Before kidney transplantation, the rate of cataracts was 16.2%; after transplantation, it increased to 23% in the right eye, and in the left eye, it increased from 13.5% to 28.8%. Influencing factors included age, renal treatment duration before transplantation, dialysis duration, urea-creatinine concentration, prednisolone dose, and diabetes after kidney transplantation.
