Abstract
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a complex vaso-proliferative eye condition that affects
prematurely born infants worldwide. It has a high prevalence of 24-47% in India. Despite timely
interventions, a proportion of babies progress to severe stages of the disease. The overall molecular
etiology leading to ROP pathogenesis is not well known.
