| 3 | Editorial on photoreceptor glucose metabolism determines normal retinal vascular growth显示文摘Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP)was first described as a disease of prematurity(1).There was then a worldwide epidemic of ROP,which contributed to 50%blindness in 1950.Later vigorous research showed a correlation between the use of supplemental oxygen and the incidence and progression of ROP.This led to a close monitoring of supplemental oxygen given to premature infants,which helped to decrease the percentage of ROP-related blindness to 4%in 1965.Yet,the incidence of ROP increased in recent years,presumably due to great improvement in neonatal care,which in turn resulted in increased survival of very-low-birth-weight premature infants. | Amy C.Lo | 2018 | Annals of Eye Science2018，，1： | 0 |
