Pediatric Retinal Disorders

Pediatric retinal disorders refer to various eye conditions that affect the retina in children. The retina is the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye that plays a crucial role in vision. These disorders can lead to vision problems and may include conditions like retinopathy of prematurity, congenital retinal dystrophies, and retinal detachment. Symptoms often involve difficulties with vision, such as blurriness or trouble seeing in certain lighting. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to manage these disorders and help preserve a child's vision and overall eye health.
