Purpose: To report the outcomes of children treated with intravitreal Bevacizumab (IVB) for Aggressive Retinopathy of Prematurity (A-ROP) at an Indonesian national referral hospital. Methods: This retrospective case series was conducted on all A-ROP patients who underwent IVB injection at a referral hospital in Indonesia in 2017–2020. Primary outcomes included regression, subsequent procedure, refractive error, and side effects. Results: Four patients (seven eyes) were included, with mean gestational age 29.8 weeks. Mean postmenstrual age at injection was 35 weeks. Mean duration from IVB injection to laser photocoagulation was nine days. ROP had regressed in all patients at one-year follow up after injection, and patients presented no systemic side effects. Conclusion: Use of IVB injection in A-ROP patients could be beneficial to prevent disease progression, and concomitant laser treatment can lead to better outcome. Prospective, larger sample size studies with long-term follow-up is needed. © 2022
