Eye everyone! 👀👋Hoping you're having a great weekend and staying safe.😷

So last weekend, the 7th EPOMEC took place. This conference [that gathers experts from Middle East, North Africa, and Asia Pacific] dissects the latest scientific knowledge, industry advancements and also the challenges in Ophthalmology. There are debates, live surgeries, panel discussions, presentations, and focused group discourses.

Sharing today my picture from @epomec

Day 1, I presented 'The Best Technique for Inferior Oblique Weakening Is: Inferior Oblique Myectomy' at the Pediatrics & Strabismus session. I also moderated a live surgery session.

And on Day 2, we had a workshop on 'Difficult Srabismus Cases: Diagnosis and Management'.

How do you spend your weekends?😄

🔹𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝑹𝑶𝑷?
ROP is a potentially blinding condition caused by abnormal development of retinal blood vessels in premature infants, especially the ones with a low birth weight [less than 1250 grams] and born before 31 weeks of gestation. It is often ignored or not done periodically as the eyes look normal from the outside. And parents, neonatologist cannot tell until the eyes are examined by a trained ophthalmologist with specialized equipment who is used to dealing with ROP. Not all ophthalmologists are trained to diagnose and treat this blinding condition.

🔹𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒂𝒄𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒊𝒕 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒐𝒏 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒃𝒂𝒃𝒚?
It can threaten the vision if not picked up earlier. Timely and frequent eye checks are important to pick up ROP. In majority, ROP resolves with time. But in some, it can progress to severe stages which result in damage to the retina, ultimately leading to a retinal detachment leading to loss of vision.

🔹𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒈𝒆𝒔 𝒐𝒇 𝑹𝑶𝑷?
Birth weight and gestational age are the most important risk factors for development of severe ROP. Other factors that are associated with the presence of ROP include anemia, poor weight gain, blood transfusion, respiratory distress, breathing difficulties and the overall health of the infant. ROP is described by its location in the eye (the zone), by the severity of the disease (the stage) and by the appearance of the retinal vessels (plus disease). Stage 1 of ROP is a demarcation line that separates normal from premature retina. Stage 2 is a ridge which has height and width. Stage 3 is the growth of fragile new abnormal blood vessels. As ROP progresses. the blood vessels may engorge and become tortuous (plus disease).

💥There are 2 ways to treat it:💥
1️⃣Laser ablation
2️⃣Injecting medication
