PURPOSE: To study the refractive outcome in preterm infants with and without retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in a tertiary care hospital in North India.
METHODS: This prospective study was conducted on 300 consecutive premature infants with a birth weight of 2 kg or less and a gestational age of 34 weeks or less at birth. The infants were divided into three groups (no ROP, spontaneously regressed ROP, and laser-treated ROP) and were followed up at 1 year of age to assess the presence and type of refractive error in each group.
RESULTS: The refractive error data were available for 277 neonates (554 eyes). On cycloplegic retinoscopy at 1 year of follow-up, the incidence of myopia was 12.29%, 29.55%, and 48.83% in all three groups, respectively, being most common in the laser-treated group, and the values were statistically significant (P < .05). Moreover, high myopia was most prevalent in the laser-treated group (23.25%). A correlation between birth weight and gestational age with spherical equivalent showed that a low birth weight and a low gestational age are more commonly found in infants with a more negative spherical equivalent.
CONCLUSIONS: Infants with laser-treated ROP have a higher incidence of myopia than those with spontaneously regressed ROP or no ROP. [J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2022;59(3):151-155.].
