Abstract
We studied 51 premature babies who were admitted to the N.I.C.U. of S.N.U.H., managed with oxygen with or without artificial ventilation due to respiratory distress, and examined by indirect ophthalmoscopy between April 1, 1982 and March 31, 1986. The results were as follows; 1. Among 51 premature babies, retinopathy of prematurity developed in 12 cases (24%). 2. The high distribution of retinopathy of prematurity was observed in following facorts. 1) lesser gestational period 2) lower birth weight 3) longer duration of oxygen therapy 4) higher concentration of oxygen therapy 5) Oxygen theraphy by mechanical ventilation (IPPB c intubation) 6) associated with frequent apneic spell, sepsis, multiple birth, PDA c indomethacin, S.G.A. and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. 3. Among 12 cases of retinopathy of prematurity, the spontaneous regression occurred in 7 cases (58.3%).
