Retinopathy of Prematurity
Our Best Ophthalmologist in Lucknow is also providing Treatment for ROP that effects in Babies who are Premature or Weigh less than 3 Pounds.
Retinopathy of Prematurity happens when Abnormal Blood Vessels grow in the Retina(the Light-Sensitive Layer of Tissue in the back of the Eye). Some Babies with ROP have Mild Cases and get better without Treatment. But some Babies need Treatment to Protect their Vision and Prevent Blindness.
In Advanced Cases of ROP, the Retina may Partially or Completely Pull Away from its Normal Position which can cause Vision Loss and Blindness. If your Baby have ROP that caused Damage, you may later notice that:
- Their Eyes Wander, Shake, or make other Unusual Movements
- Their Eyes don’t follow Objects
- Their Pupils Look White
- They have Trouble Recognizing Faces
Babies with Advanced ROP may need Laser Treatment on the Sides of the Retina. Medicines called anti-VEGF drugs may also need to be Injected into your Baby’s Eye to Stop the Abnormal Growth of Blood Vessels through the Retina.
Here at the Best Eye Care Clinic in Lucknow, ‘Sudeep Advanced Retina Care’ we do EOP Screenings, Lasers, Injections & Surgeries to help keep ROP from getting Worse and to Protect Your Child’s Vision.
