Core Tip	Although literature is full of various articles on retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), there are very few comprehensive review articles on this disease. This article covers ROP from 1940s and 1950s when seen as retrolental fibroplasia, to the current screening and treatment guidelines to the future trends. Our objective is to consolidate the literature on this disease, which will benefit the pediatricians.
