Important Things You Don't Know about Pediatric Retina
My Session Status
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Describe an approach to identifying common and important pathologies with OCT in the pediatric population
- List factors that may be important for stress during ROP exams and for risk of ROP severity
- Address concerns regarding the long-term neurodevelopmental impact of intraocular bevacizumab
- Describe surgical management options in advanced retinoblastoma
- Discuss the clinical utility of OCT and electroretinography in pediatric eye disease
- Review safety evidence for intracameral antibiotics in pediatric cataract surgery
