The Importance of Early Retinal Photography in Pediatric Myopia Management

The Importance of Early Retinal Photography in Pediatric Myopia Management

Taking retinal photos of children early on is important to document the health of their fundus from an early age. Studies show that this is especially important when differentiating between glaucomatous changes versus a patient with myopia. At Treehouse Eyes, we aim to give children better vision for life. Having fundus photography from a 6-year-old and then looking at it when they are 60 will teach us so much about their health over time. In the future, we can leverage all these photos and use artificial intelligence to tell us so much more about our patients' past, present, and future health.

Very important approach. Don't waste 54 years. ??Take current and existing data from the last few years and apply a combined longitudinal and cross sectional approach. This will form a reasonable basis for the future refinements of the data.

Collecting and analyzing a person's retinal Images from 6 to 60 year of age would be quite an informative undertaking. Makes me ponder on where will the technology be in about 50 years from now?
