Anterior segment complications after diode laser photocoagulation for prethreshold retinopathy of prematurity.

Purpose: To evaluate anterior segment complication rates in eyes treated for prethreshold versus threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and look for potential risk factors.

Design: Retrospective, observational case series study.

Methods: All patients treated with diode laser for ROP between 1995 and 2007 were identified.
