Retinopathy of Prematurity Treatment
Retinopathy of Prematurity Treatment
Treatment depends on the severity and progression of ROP. Common treatments include:
Laser Therapy (Photocoagulation):
- Burns the peripheral retina to stop abnormal blood vessel growth.
- Highly effective in preventing progression to severe ROP.
Anti-VEGF Injections:
- Medications like bevacizumab are injected into the eye to block abnormal blood vessel growth.
- Often used for severe cases affecting Zone I.
Vitrectomy Surgery:
- Removes the vitreous gel to relieve tension on the retina.
- Used for advanced cases where retinal detachment is present.
Scleral Buckling:
- A surgical procedure where a band is placed around the eye to push the retina back into place.
- Typically used for Stage 4 or 5 ROP.
