NCT ID NCT04995341

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study follows premature babies who were part of an earlier study to see how a special eye imaging technique (OCT) compares to standard photos. Researchers want to find early signs that predict which babies need treatment for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) or may have vision or brain development issues later. About 236 children will be observed up to age 5 to improve early care and outcomes.
