Track: Pediatric and Neonatal Ophthalmology

Pediatric and neonatal ophthalmology focuses on diagnosing and treating eye conditions that affect infants and children, including congenital disorders such as cataracts, strabismus, and retinopathy of prematurity. Early detection and intervention are critical to prevent long-term vision impairment and developmental delays. The field involves specialized techniques, such as advanced imaging and eye exams tailored for young patients, to identify and manage conditions before they impact quality of life. Treatment can include surgical interventions, corrective lenses, or other therapies to support optimal visual development. The goal is to ensure healthy vision in children for proper growth and development.
Congenital Cataracts in Infants and Children
Explores the causes, diagnosis, and surgical management of congenital cataracts, which can impair vision in infants and young children, and the importance of early intervention for preventing permanent vision loss.
Strabismus in Children
Examines the diagnosis and treatment of strabismus (misalignment of the eyes) in children, including non-surgical options such as glasses or patching, as well as surgical treatments to correct eye alignment and prevent amblyopia.
Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) Diagnosis and Treatment
Focuses on the early identification and treatment of amblyopia, a condition where one eye fails to develop normal vision, and methods to improve visual acuity, including patching, atropine therapy, and vision therapy.
Pediatric Glaucoma
Discusses the causes, diagnosis, and management of pediatric glaucoma, a condition where increased intraocular pressure can lead to optic nerve damage, with emphasis on early detection and both medical and surgical treatment options.
Inherited Retinal Diseases in Children
Explores the genetic causes and clinical management of inherited retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa, Leber congenital amaurosis, and Stargardt disease, with a focus on diagnostic techniques and emerging therapies.
Pediatric Uveitis
Examines the diagnosis and management of uveitis (inflammation of the eye), particularly in children, including treatment options such as corticosteroids and immunosuppressive therapy to prevent complications and preserve vision.
