早产儿视网膜病变患儿屈光影响因素研究进展

Analysis of underlying factors of refractive errors in infants with retinopathy of prematurity

早产是指妊娠不足37周分娩,此时娩出的新生儿称为早产儿。早产儿视网膜病变是一类发生于早产儿和低体质量儿的视网膜血管异常增生性眼病,是全球范围内儿童致盲的主要原因。早产儿视网膜病变患儿发生屈光不正的风险高,其影响因素包括孕周、出生体质量、屈光参数以及治疗方式等,早期发现及干预ROP对患儿的视力预后至关重要。正文就可能影响早产儿视网膜病变患儿视觉发育及屈光状态的因素进行归纳与总结。

Preterm birth refers to delivery within 37 weeks of pregnancy;newborns delivered within this time are called premature babies. Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP) is a type of retinal vascular dysplasia that occurs in premature and low-weight infants. It is the main cause of blindness in children globally. Infants with retinopathy of prematurity have a high risk of developing refractive errors. The underlying factors, which include gestational age, birth weight, refractive parameters, treatment methods, and early detection and intervention of ROP, are very important for the visual prognosis of children. We provide an introduction and summary of the factors that may affect the visual development and refractive status of infants with retinopathy of prematurity.
