Anterior Chamber Angle and Anterior Segment Structure of Eyes in Children With Early Stages of Retinopathy of Prematurity

The eyes of the ROP children presented a narrower ACA and a more anteriorly curved and inserted iris than those of the full-term children. A steeper cornea, shallower anterior chamber, and greater lens thickness were the main structural changes in the anterior segment components of these patients. Further research is needed to investigate the association between these structural changes and the development of certain ocular diseases, such as glaucoma, in these patients.
