Pediatric Retina Disorders

Pediatric retina disorders are eye conditions affecting the retina in children, the part of the eye responsible for vision. These disorders can lead to vision problems and may include conditions like retinopathy of prematurity, where premature infants are at risk, and congenital retinal diseases, which are often inherited. Symptoms might include poor vision, eye misalignment, or abnormal eye movements. Early detection and treatment are crucial, as they can help prevent long-term vision loss. Management often involves specialized eye care and monitoring by pediatric ophthalmologists to ensure children achieve the best possible visual outcomes.
