Refractive status and ocular characteristics of preschool children with retinopathy of prematurity after different treatments
Children with ROP who received laser treatment have higher myopia and astigmatism than those who received anti-VEGF treatment. Children treated with laser or supplementary laser treatment have higher anterior corneal astigmatism, anterior corneal curvature, thicker lenses, whole-eye higher-order aberrations, and whole-eye trefoil. The cause of myopia in children with ROP after laser treatment is increased anterior corneal surface curvature and lens thickness.
