Abstract

Human foveal development is a complex process that can be altered by retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Establishing a baseline of normal foveal development is paramount before understanding the impact caused by prematurity and ROP. It is important to recognize ROP as a neurovascular disease that impacts vascular development, neuronal development, and the complex interplay between them.
