Childhood ocular safety after postnatal exposure to topical dexamethasone during retinopathy of prematurity screening

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dexamethasone eye drops are being introduced off‐label to prevent progression of severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We evaluated ophthalmologic outcomes in early childhood after postnatal topical dexamethasone exposure in pre‐term infants at a standardized follow‐up examination.

Myopia prevalence in Finland doubled from 1930s to 1950s birth cohorts and is linked to educational attainment

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of myopia and factors associated with the increase of myopia prevalence in Finland between two generations and discuss the reasons why myopia has not increased similarly as in many Asian countries. Methods A questionnaire assessing factors potentially related to myopia was sent

The utility of three predictors of childhood myopia: a Bayesian analysis

Vision Research, 1995
Any treatment to prevent the onset of juvenile myopia will require predictive tests in order to determine which children should receive treatment. Three risk factors for myopia were evaluated for their ability to predict myopia: (a) refraction at school entry; (b) refraction in infancy; and (c) parental history of myopia.

Trajectories of refraction and strabismus from 2.5 to 12 years in a national cohort of extremely preterm children‐ the Extremely Preterm Infants in Sweden Study (EXPRESS)

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the longitudinal development of refraction and strabismus in a national cohort of children born extremely preterm (EPT) and find relations to perinatal events and neurodevelopmental outcomes. Methods All surviving children born <27‐gestation weeks in Sweden during April 2004–March 2007, and full‐term born matched ...
