چکیده
Background Preterm infants have a high risk to develop visual deficits due to retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), brain lesionsand prematurity per se [1]. The possibility to assess different aspects of visual function can allow early and specific intervention in an attempt to reduce the risk of difficulties in motor coordination, attention and learning at school age. The aim is to identify early signs of visual and motorperceptual deficit in the first years in order to program a specific intervention before school age.
