DOI: 10.1007/s11427-018-9337-0
Abstract: In mild or moderate retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), retinal vessels undergo obliteration, proliferation, and regression. Despite complete regression of vessel abnormalities, a variety of visual impairments have been reported. Rodent oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) is widely… read more here.
