Among the prime causes of blindness, Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) tops the chart. Technical advancements in nurturing the neonates have been witnessing tremendous positivity in the diagnosis and treatment of neonates. Ophthalmologic diagnosis points to binocular indirect ophthalmoscope (BIO) since the beginning, but newbie technologies of wide-field digital imaging have been showing promising results to switch over from traditional diagnostic methods. In this paper, we review the technological evolution of diagnosis of Retinopathy of Prematurity, interesting findings of cohort studies carried out across the globe and the areas where limelight has to be thrown for a commoner to understand the aspects of both medical and engineering domains and the corresponding studies going on behind the screen of biomedical engineering and instrumentation. |
