Development of multiple subretinal hemorrhages during diode laser supplementation for retinopathy of prematurity

Elias C Mavrofrides et al. J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus. 2006 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

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.
