Abbreviation: ROP, retinopathy of prematurity.

Figure 5 (A) Left eye nasal quadrant of a male baby born at 33 weeks weighing 1,500 g shows ischemic loops enclosing areas of capillary drop out extending until the anterior edge of zone 2. (B) The angiogram on the same eye confirms the capillary non-perfusion within these loops. Leaking neovascularization adjacent to the optic disc is also noted.
