Visual performance in high myopia
Current Eye Research, 1990The visual performances of eight low myopic subjects (-2 D to -7 D) and eight high myopic subjects (greater than -7 D) with normal visual acuities were analyzed by contrast sensitivity testing with both spectacle and contact lens corrections to determine if any differences in function exist between those groups.

SummaryUrbanisation and increasing of education of modern societies is influencing normal homeostasis of eye growth, which in turn is causing an important myopic shift. Myopia is associated with increased vitreous liquefaction and premature synchisis and syneresis of the vitreous body.

Clinical Results in High Myopia
2015Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is an all-femtosecond laser treatment for refractive errors. In contrast to previous flap-based treatment, a thin layer of anterior stroma is preserved during SMILE surgery. This has led to the suggestion that SMILE has a higher biomechanical stability than excimer laser based photoablative procedures ...

High myopia with cone dysfunction
Acta Ophthalmologica, 1991Abstract. All 3 children, 2 boys and 1 girl (the probands), in a family had high myopia and subnormal visual acuities. The boys had high myopia in both eyes, the girl had high myopia in 1 eye and low myopia in the other eye. Both of the boys had a protanomalous colour vision defect.

OVERVIEW OF THE COMPLICATIONS OF HIGH MYOPIA
Retina, 2017Abstract High myopia is very common and one of the major causes of social blindness, especially in East Asian countries. It is characterized by axial length elongation, and induces various specific complications, including cataract formation, retinal detachment from peripheral retinal tears, myopic foveoschisis, macular hole ...

Esotropia associated with high myopia
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2015The aim of the present article is to describe the pathophysiology of esotropia associated with high myopia, commonly known as heavy eye syndrome, and discuss the preoperative evaluation and surgical options in these complex patients.Numerous studies have looked to determine the cause of esotropia in patients with high myopia.

The Prevalence and Impact of High Myopia
Eye & Contact Lens: Science & Clinical Practice, 2012Myopia has gained increasing interest in recent years, particularly because of its increase in prevalence across populations worldwide. The onset of myopia has shifted to a younger age, and the number of high myopes with prescriptions of more than -5.00 D has increased over the last few decades.

Foveoschisis Without High Myopia
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2010Two patients presented complaints of visual acuity worsening in one eye. During examination they showed optical coherence tomography (OCT) and clinical findings indistingishable from myopic foveoschisis, although both had minimal refractive errors.

High myopia and cataract surgery
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2016Cataract surgery in high myopes is challenging. Using third-generation intraocular lens (IOL) formulas, without adjustments, hyperopic refractive outcomes are common. We discuss these issues, focusing on the various lens formulas and transformations that have improved postoperative accuracy.Axial length measurement error has been largely overcome by ...
