A variety of changes in the eye can occur during pregnancy. These can be physiological, pathologic related to the pregnancy, or pathologic unrelated to the pregnancy. Pregnancy also can affect preexisting conditions. Pregnant women often discuss changes in their health first with their obstetrician; therefore, knowledge of common ophthalmic complaints during pregnancy is of particular concern for the practicing obstetrician. We reviewed the literature for ophthalmic and neuro-ophthalmic conditions that occur during pregnancy or in the postpartum period. Results are presented anatomically, first discussing general ophthalmologic conditions, then neuro-ophthalmic conditions follow. Effects of ocular medications on the fetus are reviewed.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 10. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 July 2020.
All research outputs
#4,842,908
of 34,410,315 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology
#177
of 1,941 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#35,565
of 240,446 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Obstetrics & Gynecology
#4
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,410,315 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 85th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,941 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.3. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 90% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 240,446 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 85% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
