Vitreous opacities in infants born full-term and preterm by handheld swept-source optical coherence tomography.

Purpose: To compare vitreous opacity density in infants born at term and in infants born prematurely using an investigational handheld swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).

Methods: Infants born at term underwent imaging once between 12 and 48 hours after birth; infants born prematurely were imaged at each routine retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) examination. Three masked, trained graders analyzed images.
