Is ROP test mandatory for my baby?

2026-05-28 22:19:34
Hello doctor, I delivered my son in 36weeks 5 days, that is on April 12th, 2026.. He had milk aspiration and was kept in ki NICU for 5 days where 2 days he was on oxygen support, 1 day on Cpap and 1 day on ventilator.. My doctor stated though it is late preterm it is Advised to take ROP test as he was in Oxygen support but somehow I am not satisfied with this reason and I don't want him to go through this test.. can we skip this test??
