Optic neuropathy in high myopia: Glaucoma or high myopia or both?

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research
Due to the increasing prevalence of high myopia around the world, structural and functional damages to the optic nerve in high myopia has recently attracted much attention. Evidence has shown that high myopia is related to the development of glaucomatous or glaucoma-like optic neuropathy, and that both have many common features.

Posterior segment conditions associated with myopia and high myopia

Clinical and Experimental Optometry, 2020
Myopia, and especially high myopia, is associated with a number of posterior segment changes that are considered to be mostly a consequence of the increased axial elongation. This can result in mechanical strain, attendant vascular changes, stretching and thinning of tissues, and atrophy/deformation of tissues in later or more advanced stages.
