What is Retinopathy of Prematurity Uptodate about?
This document discusses retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a disorder that affects the retina of preterm infants. It covers the pathogenesis, risk factors, epidemiology, classification and screening of ROP. ROP occurs when blood vessels in the retina are disrupted or grow abnormally in preterm infants. The risk and severity increases with lower gestational age and birth weight. Screening guidelines help identify infants that require treatment to prevent vision loss.
