Myopic maculopathy: a review.
Pathological myopia is a major cause of irreversible vision loss and is the fourth to ninth most frequent cause of blindness in the world. Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to pathological myopia is the leading cause of vision impairment in patients younger than 50 years. New scientific contributions have been made to the understanding of high myopia and associated CNV. New treatment...
متن کاملVitrectomy for myopic traction maculopathy.
OBJECTIVE To describe the results of vitrectomy in highly myopic eyes affected by a form of posterior vitreous traction termed myopic traction maculopathy (MTM). METHODS In this retrospective case series, 24 highly myopic eyes with MTM underwent vitrectomy and release of vitreoretinal traction without final fluid/gas exchange. Nine eyes (37.5%) received a combined phacovitrectomy. Mean patien...
متن کاملAxial length changes in highly myopic eyes and influence of myopic macular complications in Japanese adults
PURPOSE To investigate changes of the axial length in normal eyes and highly myopic eyes and influence of myopic macular complications in Japanese adults. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective longitudinal case series. METHODS The changes in the axial length of 316 eyes from 316 patients (mean age, 63.8 ± 9.0 years; range, 34-82; 240 females) examined using IOLMaster with a follow-up period of at leas...
متن کاملA Clinical Study on the Correlation Between Axial Length, Intraocular Pressure and Central Corneal Thickness in Myopic Eyes
Introduction: Myopia or short sightedness, is that form of refractive error wherein parallel rays of light come to a focus in front of the sentient layer of the retina when the eye is at rest; the eye is thus relatively too large, and the condition is the opposite to that of hypermetropia. Aims and objectives of the research were to find out whether there is a correlation between axial length, ...
متن کاملMyopic versus hyperopic eyes: axial length, corneal shape and optical aberrations.
This study investigated differences in geometrical properties and optical aberrations between a group of hyperopes and myopes (age-matched 30.3+/-5.2 and 30.5+/-3.8 years old, respectively, and with similar absolute refractive error 3.0+/-2.0 and -3.3+/-2.0, respectively). Axial length (AL) was measured by means of optical biometry, and corneal apical radius of curvature (CR) and asphericity (Q...
