The intervention consisted of RALT with intraoperative wide-field imaging, and most patients also received postoperative dexamethasone eye drops. The primary outcomes measured were the number of laser spots applied, re-treatment rates, and the maximum stage of retinopathy of prematurity observed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixty-one eyes of 31 infants were treated with RALT. The median follow-up time was 24 weeks (range: 17 to 45 weeks) after birth. The mean number of laser spots administered was 859 \u00b1 280. Re-treatment was required in 3% of the eyes (6% of the infants). After excluding infants with aggressive retinopathy of prematurity the re-treatment rate for the eyes was 2% (4% of the infants). Seven of the 61 eyes were diagnosed as having aggressive retinopathy of prematurity. In three of these eyes, the retinopathy progressed to a maximum stage greater than 3 following RALT treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Treatment of retinopathy of prematurity using the RALT technique, in conjunction with intraoperative wide-field imaging and, in most infants, postoperative dexamethasone eye drops, was associated with a low number of laser spots and a low re-treatment rate. All eyes that did not have aggressive retinopathy of prematurity regressed after the RALT treatment. Further longitudinal studies are required to assess the long-term structural and functional outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3928\/01913913-20260601-01","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,3]],"date-time":"2026-08-03T18:03:07Z","timestamp":1785780187000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Ridge-Adjacent Laser With Imaging and Dexamethasone for Treatment of Retinopathy of Prematurity"],"prefix":"10.3928","author":[{"given":"Hanna Maria","family":"\u00d6hnell","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ophthalmology, Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Lund University, and Department of Ophthalmology, Sk\u00e5ne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandra","family":"Nobaek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ophthalmology, Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Lund University, and Department of Ophthalmology, Sk\u00e5ne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sten","family":"Andr\u00e9asson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ophthalmology, Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Lund University, and Department of Ophthalmology, Sk\u00e5ne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lotta","family":"Gr\u00e4nse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Ophthalmology, Department of Clinical Sciences Lund, Lund University, and Department of Ophthalmology, Sk\u00e5ne University Hospital, Lund, Sweden."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2308","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.121.12.1684"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ophtha.2021.05.031"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12974-017-0943-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1091-8531(97)90008-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cct.2004.03.003"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0161-6420(99)00042-1"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/01.iae.0000244293.94251.20"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fopht.2023.1270591"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0279898"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaapos.2020.01.007"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ICU.0000000000000787"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00417-007-0646-x"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjophthalmol-2019-314874"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/IAE.0b013e31828e6969"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5507\/bp.2015.027"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1651-2227.1996.tb14164.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_1_18_2","volume-title":"Swedish quality register for ROP","author":"SWEDROP","unstructured":"SWEDROP.
