It is possible for a child’s vision to be affected by an underdeveloped fundus.
Congenital anomalies of the fundus are a common pediatric ophthalmologic disorder, and the effect on vision varies depending on the location of the anomaly.
If the anomaly is located in the peripheral retina or choroid, the effect on vision is usually minor, with the main effect being a defect in the visual field.
If the abnormality is located in the central retina and choroid, the effect on vision is more pronounced.
Therefore, children with abnormal fundus development need to go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital for timely examination, such as fundoscopy, OCT, fundus fluorescence angiography, etc., so that the doctor can fully evaluate the condition and predict the impact on vision.
