WHAT IS RETINOPATHY OF PREMATURITY?

The back part of the eye which is sensitive to light is called the RETINA. It receives visual signals, processes them and sends them to the brain which in turn results in meaningful vision. This sensitive layer called Retina receives its nutrition in the form of Oxygen from Blood Vessels.

The eye develops rapidly in the last 12 weeks of Fetal life. A baby born prematurely will have some degree of immaturity in the Retina and therefore is it risk of developing Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP). Babies who have ROP have blood vessels which do not grow normally. This abnormality is detected by routine screening tests.

Various studies show that incidence of ROP in preterm neonates is seen in about 20% and treatment is required in only 20% of those diagnosed with ROP.

HOW SERIOUS IS MY BABY’S ROP?

ROP is broadly divided into 5 stages. Stage 1 being mild and stage 5 most severe. Most of the babies diagnosed with ROP have a stage 1 or 2.

Stage 1 – Mild abnormality of blood vessels with formation of Demarcation Line.

Stage 2 – Increased vessel abnormality with formation of RIDGE.

Stage 3 – Proliferation of these blood vessels into Vitreous Cavity.

Stage 4 – When these severe abnormal blood vessels cause part of Retina to detach from its underlying surface.

Stage 5 – The whole of Retina is now detached due to pull from abnormal blood vessels

WHAT TREATMENT IS NEEDED FOR THE BABY?

In early stages of ROP such as stage 1 or 2, no treatment is needed. The abnormal blood vessels regress on their own. No vision loss occurs in the long run.

However, for severe cases of ROP, treatment might be required, which includes

Laser Therapy – laser light therapy is used to treat the retina which prevents further growth of abnormal blood vessels and thus prevents ROP from going into severe stages.
Intravitreal ANTI – VEGF –used to treat cases of ROP especially very severe cases with Aggressive.
Posterior Disease – usually used in conjunction with laser
Surgery – required for stage 4 and stage 5 cases of ROP

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING ROP SCREENING?

ROP screening is ideally done by a Retina specialist who is trained in dealing with ROP cases. To screen the baby’s eyes are Dilated using special low strength dilating eye drops.

It takes about 30-35 minutes for adequate dilation

Prior to examination anesthetic eye drops are instilled in both eyes. To open the eye lids a soft delicate metallic eye speculum is placed and an indenter is used to rotate the eye ball. The child cries during the examination but all precautions are taken to make it smooth and painless for the baby.

Eye screening usually takes less than 1 minute for both eyes.

I successfully underwent a Blade free Lasik surgery in October at Sardana Eye Institute. Ofcourse, it was a nerve-racking situation for me ,however, the critical period was well handled by Dr. Jagmohan Sardana due to his expertise . As far as the condition of the hospital is concerned, it's well spruced, hygiene at its pinnacle and well equipped with necessary set of machinery and skills.
Sincere thanks to Dr. Jagmohan Sardana and his team for my successful completion of Lasik surgery.

I recently (a week back) underwent LASIK surgery at Sardana Eye Institute, and I must say, my experience has been nothing short of exceptional! From the moment I stepped into the clinic to the post-operative follow-ups, every aspect of my journey towards better vision was handled with utmost care and professionalism.
The LASIK surgery itself was quick and painless. The surgical team was meticulous in their approach, ensuring a seamless and comfortable experience throughout the procedure. Dr. Tushar Sardana, Girish Sir and the assisting staff constantly communicated with me during the surgery, which helped alleviate any nervousness.
I'll not say My results was beyond expectations as I was expecting a 100% clear vision post surgery,
but I can confidently say that my vision has dramatically improved. They made me understood that as I was having -8 diopter in my both eye which comparably consider as high power it can take up to a month to get 100% clear vision.
If you're considering LASIK or any other eye-related treatment, I wholeheartedly recommend Sardana Eye Institute.
Thank you, Dr. Tushar, Dr. Jagmohan and Girish sir, for giving me a new perspective on the world!
