Vision Eye Hospital offers one of the most advanced and specialized ROP (Retinopathy of Prematurity) screening and treatment services in Dhaka, Bangladesh — dedicated to protecting the precious eyesight of premature infants through early detection, timely treatment, and comprehensive follow‑up care.
Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) is an eye condition that can affect premature babies, especially those born before about 32 weeks of gestation or with very low birth weight. Because the retina (the light‑sensing tissue at the back of the eye) is still developing at birth in these infants, the blood vessels may grow abnormally. If untreated, this can lead to retinal detachment, severe vision problems, or even permanent blindness.
ROP often does not show obvious signs early on, which is why screening must be done as soon as possible after birth for at‑risk infants. Regular screening increases the chances of preventing serious complications and preserving lifelong vision.
