Abstract

Retinal Hemorrhage - physiopathology Retinal Hemorrhage - etiology Infant, Very Low Birth Weight Humans Infant, Premature Female Remission, Spontaneous Laser Coagulation - adverse effects Retinopathy of Prematurity - surgery Gestational Age Infant, Newborn
A premature infant had subretinal hemorrhages in one eye after laser ablation for threshold retinopathy of prematurity. We postulate that subretinal hemorrhages occur from trauma to the microvasculature secondary to globe manipulation during scleral depression at the time of laser treatment.
