  • Title: Delayed visual maturation.
    Author: Fielder AR, Russell-Eggitt IR, Dodd KL, Mellor DH.
    Journal: Trans Ophthalmol Soc U K (1962); 1985; 104 ( Pt 6)():653-61. PubMed ID: 2417389.
    Abstract:
    Fifty-three infants with delayed visual maturation (DVM) are presented. These have been classified according to their ocular and systemic features into three groups: DVM as an isolated anomaly, in association with mental retardation, and ocular abnormalities accompanied by DVM. The clinical features are discussed, particularly regarding the time and speed of visual improvement in the three groups. Infants with DVM who experienced difficulties in the perinatal period have an increased risk of developing permanent neurological sequelae.
