ABSTRACT

Presented here is a case of hybrid retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) with features of both aggressive posterior ROP and ridge-like staged ROP with extensive candle wax-like preretinal deposits plastered on the surface of the retina from optic disc to vascular-avascular junction at a postmenstrual age (PMA) of 34 weeks. The baby was too sick for laser photocoagulation and so underwent intravitreal bevacizumab at half adult doses in both eyes. The deposits melted dramatically within 1-2 weeks of antivascular endothelial growth factor injection without any signs of recurrence till the last visit at 58 weeks of PMA.
