To describe eye alignment in children with low birth weight and/or born prematurely. Through a review of published studies and personal observations, describe what we have learnt from the past for the future about eye alignment. This talk will focus on what we know about eye alignment in different levels of prematurity and body weight as well as describe eye alignment in different patient groups with high frequency of low birth weight and/or prematurity.
