Functional results of staged surgical treatment of advanced retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) are analyzed between 2005 and 2010 in ophthalmologic department of city children's hospital ( St. Petersburg). A total of 154 children (303 eyes) were operated. The assessment of visual functions was performed using proposed original method. Subject vision was achieved in 65% of 20 eyes (6,6%) with 4B stage ROP. Fair anatomic results were achieved in 131 eyes of children with 5 stage ROP (283 eyes), light perception was preserved in 52 eyes (39,7%), capability to distinguish large objects appeared in 40 eyes (30,5%) and subject vision developed in 39 eyes (29,8%). Correlation between visual functions and environmental conditions was found, in particular presence or absence of long-term period of training in color and individual objects distinguishing. In a group of children training resulted in achievement of fair functions (subject vision, capability to distinguish large objects) in 81,2% of patients, where as in a group without training the same capabilities developed in 31,8% of cases only. Functional outcomes were also found to depend on CNS condition and time of surgery. |
