Retinal vascular development in an immature retina at 33–34 weeks postmenstrual age predicts retinopathy of prematurity
Abstract In preterm birth, the immature retina can develop a potentially blinding disorder of the eye known as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The vaso-proliferative phase of ROP begins at an approximate postmenstrual age (PMA) of 32 weeks. There is little or no evidence of an association between...
