Motor Delay, Premature Retinopathy, Visual Impairment

Brief summary

The aim of this study was to investigate the eye structure, visual impairment, visual motor development and motor coordination of children between 2-6 ages that had applied to diod laser photocoagulation and intravitreal anti - vascular endothelial growth factor treatment.

Detailed description

There are three different groups in this study. Children between 2-6 ages that had applied to diod laser photocoagulation and intravitreal anti - vascular endothelial growth factor treatment will have evaluated with Snellen Test, Titmus Fly Test, Optical Kohlerans Tomography, Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual Motor Integration, Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-II, World Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF and State - Trait Anxiety Inventory.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Visual Motor Integration3 weeksVisual-motor integration (VMI) is the degree to which visual perception and finger-hand movements are well coordinated and will asses with Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration in this study. This test is a standardized, norm-referenced assessment involving copying geometric forms that is used to determine the level of integration between visual and motor systems in people of all ages. The Short Format and Full Format tests take about 10-15 minutes each to administer. Results are reported as standard scores, percentiles, and age equivalents.
Visual Perception3 weeksVisual perception will asses with Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration in this study. This test is a standardized, norm-referenced assessment involving copying geometric forms that is used to determine the level of integration between visual and motor systems in people of all ages. Visual Perception test takes about 5 minutes. Results are reported as standard scores, percentiles, and age equivalents.
Motor Coordination3 weeksMotor Coordination is coordination of finger movements and will asses by Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration in this study. This test is a standardized, norm-referenced assessment involving copying geometric forms that is used to determine the level of integration between visual and motor systems in people of all ages. Motor coordination test takes about 5 minutes. Results are reported as standard scores, percentiles, and age equivalents.
Retinal Layers' Development3 weeksDevelopment of retinal layers will assess with Optical coherence tomography (OCT). The OCT allows for in vivo, cross-sectional assessment of eye tissue, including the retina and its vasculature. By comparing the interference patterns of light that passes through live tissue to a reference arm, OCT provides high-resolution imaging of just a few microns of eye microanatomy.

Other

MeasureTime frameDescription
Quality of Life in Parents3 weeksQuality of life assessment of parents will evaluate with The WHOQOL-BREF instrument that is comprises 26 items, which measure the following broad domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment.
State - Trait Anxiety of Parents3 weeksState and trait anxiety level of parents will asses by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) that is a commonly used measure of trait and state anxiety. It can be used in clinical settings to diagnose anxiety and to distinguish it from depressive syndromes. It also is often used in research as an indicator of caregiver distress.The STAI has 20 items for assessing trait anxiety and 20 for state anxiety.
