Propranolol eye drops
"All the enrolled preterm newborns will receive propranolol as ophthalmic solution (0,1%): 3 microdrops of 6 microliters (μL) propranolol solution (= 6 μg propranolol/microdrop) will be topically applied with a calibrated pipette, in each eye, three times daily (every 8 hours).The treatment will continue until the complete development of retinal vascularisation, but no more than 60 days.~The propranolol treatment will be always associated to the conventional approach adopted by the ETROP Cooperative Group."
