Six patients from 1975 to 1981 were treated by cryotherapy for active retinopathy and prematurity. One eye was treated, leaving the second eye as a control. Cryotherapy was applied just posterior to the demarcation line, under direct observation and utilizing the cataract probe. Conclusions from this experience are that in order to be effective, cryotherapy must be performed comparatively early in Stage III. Unfortunately, this would lead to treatment of many cases that would spontaneously regress. Treatment of late Stage III, rapidly progressive cases is not impressive.
1975年至1981年间，有6名患有活动性视网膜病变和早产的患者接受了冷冻疗法治疗。仅对一只眼睛进行治疗，另一只眼睛作为对照。在直接观察下，使用白内障探头，在分界线后方进行冷冻疗法。从该经验得出的结论是，为了有效，冷冻疗法必须在III期相对早期进行。不幸的是，这将导致对许多会自发消退的病例进行治疗。对晚期III期快速进展的病例进行治疗效果并不显著。
