The International Classification of ROP classifies it in 5 stages, dividing it in 3 anatomical zones. A threshold stage is considered when we have the presence of stage 3, in zone 1 or 2 in 5 continuous hour uses or 8 discontinuous with plus disease (15,16,17). The pre-threshold stage is divided in two types: type 1 is any stage of the disease in zone 1 with plus disease, stage 3, without plus disease in zone 1 or stage 2 or 3 with plus in zone 2. Type 2 is stage 1 or 2 without plus disease in zone 1 or stage 3 without plus disease in zone 2 (17,19). The threshold stage happens approximately in 5% of the patients with very low weight to the birth, of which the 10-15% develop blindness (6,8)
