  • Title: Retinopathy of prematurity: what causes it?
    Author: Avery GB, Glass P.
    Journal: Clin Perinatol; 1988 Dec; 15(4):917-28. PubMed ID: 3061707.
    Abstract:
    Retinopathy of prematurity continues to be a major cause of morbidity in surviving prematures despite attempts to regulate oxygen. Developing retinal vessels apparently can be disrupted by any of a considerable number of influences. By far the preeminent risk factor is extreme prematurity itself.
