{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>To evaluate the VEP parameters in operated controlled primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) eyes and compare them to normal age similar children eyes.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>A cross-sectional comparative study conducted on 34 (19 right) eyes of 26 (19 males) children operated for PCG and 30 (17 right) eyes of 22 (12 males) age similar control children in a university-based practice. All study participants were subjected to a standard protocol of examination and electrophysiological testing (single flash VEP response, light adapted, pupils not dilated), reporting on the P2 implicit time, N1-P1 and N2-P2 (amplitude).<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The mean±SD of the age of the study children and controls was 43.22±33.2 and 55.68±35.2 months respectively (p=0.217). The mean±SD IOP and cup/disc ratio of the study children were 18.4±5.2 and 5.2±3.3mmHg and 0.7±0.2 and 0.3±0.3 at presentation and at testing, respectively. The VEP testing was conducted after 21.5±21.3 months of surgery for PCG. There was no statistically significant differences in P2, N1-P1 and N2-P2 between patients and controls (p=0.941, 0.916,0.945, respectively). There was no statistically significant correlation between most of the clinical characteristics of the study eyes and any of the studied VEP parameters.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Operated controlled PCG eyes have VEP parameters that match their normal fellow children.
