Lacquer cracks observed in peripheral fundus of eyes with high myopia

We report a case with lacquer cracks observed in the peripheral fundus. A 37-year-old patient with bilateral high myopia who visited our clinic was examined by fluorescein angiography (FA) and fundus autofluorescence (FAF) to determine whether there were myopic fundus lesions. FA showed many arch-shaped, hyperfluorescent linear lesions running circumferentially in the peripheral fundus. FAF sho...

Patchy atrophy and lacquer cracks predispose to the development of choroidal neovascularisation in pathological myopia.

AIMS To determine the incidence and predisposing findings for choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) in a large series of highly myopic patients. METHODS The medical records of 218 consecutive patients (325 eyes) with myopic fundus changes in the macula were reviewed. The incidence of CNV during a follow up of at least 3 years of highly myopic patients and identification of predisposing findings ...

Choroidal Thickness and Biometric Markers for the Screening of Lacquer Cracks in Patients with High Myopia

OBJECTIVES Validation of choroidal thickness and other biometrics measured by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in predicting lacquer cracks formation in highly myopic eyes. METHODS Patients with a refractive error worse than -8 diopters and moderate myopic maculopathy were recruited into two groups based on the presence or absence of lacquer cracks (36 eyes without and 33...

Indocyanine green angiographic findings of lacquer cracks in pathologic myopia.

Lacquer cracks are thought to represent healed mechanical breaks in the retinal pigment epithelium, Bruch's membrane, and choriocapillaris complex. In this study, we analyzed the indocyanine green (ICG) angiographic features of lacquer cracks and compared them with findings using fluorescein angiography. Complete ophthalmologic examinations, fluorescein angiography, and ICG angiography were per...

Insight into high myopia and the macula

The incidence of myopia is constantly on the rise. Patients of high myopia and pathological myopia are young and can lose vision due to a number of degenerative changes occurring at the macula. With the emergence of new technologies such as swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography, our understanding of macular pathology in myopia has improved significantly. New condit...
