Retinopathy of Prematurity and Shaken Baby Syndrome.
Retinopathy of prematurity is a vasoproliferative disease that occurs mostly in premature and low birth weight neonates. It is a potentially blinding disease that should be screened vigorously. On the other hand, shaken baby syndrome is a non-accidental trauma that is both common and avoidable. Ophthalmologists play a crucial role in diagnosing and treating the shaken infant. The authors describe a child with the combination of retinopathy of prematurity and shaken baby syndrome.
