Intravitreal bevacizumab for exudative retinal detachment post laser therapy for retinopathy of prematurity.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), a leading cause of pediatric blindness, predominantly affects premature and low-birth-weight infants. Although many cases are self-limiting, a minority progress to retinal detachment despite treatment. Exudative retinal detachments, although uncommon, have been reported after conventional laser therapy.(1-3) We report 2 cases of exudative retinal detachment after laser therapy for prethreshold and threshold ROP that responded favourably to a series of intravitreal bevacizumab injections.
