(a) Optos wide-field imaging of AROP captured in flying baby position. (b) Representative red-free (green channel) mode showing enhanced visualization of retina vessels, avascular loops (black star), and peripheral vascular–avascular junction (white star), which will enhance further when viewed through LIO headset. AROP = aggressive retinopathy of prematurity, LIO = laser indirect ophthalmoscope
