The effects of timolol maleate on intraocular pressure (IOP) and the severity of retinopathy induced by exposure to 80% oxygen were studied in newborn Wistar rats. One drop of timolol maleate (0.25%) instilled in each eye twice a day for the first ten days of life substantially reduced intraocular p
The authors describe a scoring system they have developed for evaluating damage produced in the retinal vascular network of the newborn rat by exposure to oxygen. India ink-injected retinal flat mounts are used. The scoring system provides for division of the retina into three concentric zones with
