Abstract
To evaluate the relationship between central macular thickness (CMT) and the presence of persistent avascular retina (PAR) in previously premature children. 17 4-8 year olds with a history of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) screening were recruited, and underwent OCT and ultra-widefield fluorescein angiography (UWFFA). CMT was higher in PAR patients (p < 0.001). A central retina thickness above 260 μm had sensitivity/specificity of 95%/100% for detecting PAR. There may be an association between macular thickness as measured by OCT and the presence of PAR on UWFFA.
