AIM:To investigate the application of RetCamⅢ in the screening of infants' ocular diseases.

METHODS:RetCamⅢ images were taken in 89 infants aged 6 months to 2 years who needed screening for retinopathy from July 2013 to July 2015, two of which received fundus fluorescein angiography(FFA)examination under general anesthesia.

RESULTS:In the 89 infants, there were familial exudative vitreoretinopathy(FEV)in 19 cases, persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous in 16 cases, retinoblastoma in 12 cases, external exudative retinopathy in 12 cases, congenital coloboma of choroid in 9 cases, congenital nystagmus in 8 cases, optic disc hypoplasia in 6 cases, retinopathy of prematurity at advanced stage in 5 cases and optic neuritis in 2 case. Based on FFA examination, one of the two infants received FFA was diagnosed as optic neuritis, the other was diagnosed as FEV.

CONCLUSION:RetCamⅢ that plays an important role in early diagnosis and visual rehabilition can be trusted to screen the retinopathy in infants.
