BACKGROUND: Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is one of the most frequent causes of severe visual impairment or blindness in childhood and can lead to severe late complications in children even after the initial disease has resolved.
PURPOSE: The present study summarizes possible late effects in childhood after treated and untreated ROP. A special focus is on the development of myopia, retinal detachment, as well as neurological and pulmonary development after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: This work is based on a selective literature search on late effects in childhood of treated or untreated ROP.
RESULTS: Preterm infants have an increased risk of developing high-grade myopia. Interestingly, several studies indicate that the risk of myopia is reduced following anti-VEGF treatment. With anti-VEGF treatment, however, late recurrences after initial response are possible even after several months, making long-term and frequent follow-up examinations essential. Controversy exists regarding the possible negative effects of anti-VEGF treatment on neurological and pulmonary development. After both treated and untreated ROP, rhegmatogenous, tractional or exudative retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage, high myopia and strabismus are possible late complications.
DISCUSSION: Children with a history of ROP with or without treatment have an increased risk for late ocular sequelae, such as high myopia, retinal detachment, vitreous hemorrhage and strabismus. A seamless transition from ROP screening to pediatric and ophthalmological follow-up care is therefore essential for timely detection and treatment of possible refractive errors, strabismus, or other amblyogenic changes.
