Macular changes among adult Egyptian patients with pathological myopia [PDF]

International Journal of Ophthalmology
AIM: To investigate macular changes characteristics among adults with high myopia in Egypt, and to evaluate the relationship between the degree of myopia and the extent of macular alterations. METHODS: A series of highly myopic eyes with axial length (AL)

Evaluation of ocular manifestations of patients with pathological myopia at a tertiary eye care institute in Western India

Journal of Current Research in Scientific Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Pathological myopia (PM) is defined as a refractive error ≥(−6) D or an axial length >26 mm causing complications such as early nuclear sclerosis, zonular dehiscence, macular hole, lacquer cracks, Forster-Fuchs spots, myopic traction ...

Systolic blood pressure, choroidal thickness, and axial length in patients with myopic maculopathy [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundIn the population-based Shihpai Eye Study, patients aged >65 years with myopic maculopathy were found to have higher systolic blood pressure. This finding deserved further exploration because this is the only correctable factor for preventing ...

Stem cell-based therapy for myopic maculopathy: a new concept

, 2022
Myopia has reached epidemic proportions in the world, especially in East Asia. Pathologic myopia is an extreme type of high myopia that can cause irreversible blindness. Myopic maculopathy is one of the characteristics of pathologic myopia.

The impacts of high refractive errors on self‐reported visual function and visual concern

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To examine the association between refractive errors and self‐reported visual function and visual concern, considering self‐perceived present eyesight, concerns about vision, accomplishing less and limitations in daily activities in an eye‐healthy cohort.

Interpreting the structure–function relationship in high myopia‐associated glaucoma: A review

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Visual field (VF) interpretation in high myopia‐associated glaucoma (HMG) is challenging due to frequent structure–function discordance and coexisting myopia‐related changes. These changes may reduce the reliability of conventional structure–function mapping and increase the risk of misclassifying non‐glaucomatous VF abnormalities as ...

Clinical manifestations of dual‐gene variants in retinitis pigmentosa

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited retinal disease (IRD), whereby each affected individual typically harbours pathogenic variants in a single causative gene, yet the disorder exhibits marked genetic heterogeneity, with more than 100 genes reported to underlie RP.

Retinal dystrophies simulating geographic atrophy: A diagnostic challenge

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Geographic atrophy (GA) is the chronic loss of retinal pigment epithelium, photoreceptors and choriocapillaris, marking the dry late stage of age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). GA prevalence is expected to rise in the upcoming decades. Advanced GA leads to central scotomas, reducing visual acuity and quality of life, potentially resulting

Explainable deep learning self‐supervised vision transformer for fundus‐based myopia classification

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To develop and validate a self‐supervised vision transformer (ViT) for automated three‐class classification of Normal, High Myopia (HM), and Pathologic Myopia (PM) from colour fundus photographs, with anatomically faithful interpretability. Methods A DINOv2 self‐supervised ViT was fine‐tuned using a two‐stage transfer‐learning protocol
