Relationship of retinal zone and plus severity with the requirement of re-treatment in bevacizumab-treated eyes for retinopathy of prematurity

The location of retinal vascularization and plus disease showed a wide distribution in bevacizumab-treated eyes. Graded evaluation of retinal vascularization and plus severity may help predict the need for additional treatment. Unresponsiveness to the initial treatment, increased fibrotic activity, progressive reactivated stage 2-3 ROP, extraretinal new vessels, and prophylactic purposes were the main re-treatment indications.
