Myopic Traction Maculopathy: Guidelines to Treatment

2021
Myopic Traction Maculopathy (MTM) is a complex and progressive disease that may affect one-third of high myopic eyes. The pathogenesis of MTM is multifactorial and, despite numerous published studies, still not fully understood. The interaction of different forces exerted by the ILM, the sclera and by epiretinal affections seems to be responsible for ...

Myopic traction maculopathies and their treatments

Expert Review of Ophthalmology, 2016
ABSTRACTIntroduction: Pathologic myopia is associated with structural and physiological posterior segment changes, including myopic tractional maculopathies, which can be associated with sight threatening complications. With higher resolution ophthalmic imaging techniques and access to more advanced surgical treatment options, myopic tractional ...

Guidelines for the Treatment of Myopic Traction Maculopathy

2020
Myopia is one of the leading causes of visual loss, which can lead to potentially blinding ocular diseases [1, 2]. It is usually classified into two groups: non-pathologic and pathologic myopia (PM) [3]. PM is defined as a high refractive error (>−6.00D) or as an axial length >26.00 mm.

Surgery for Myopic Traction Maculopathy

2020
Myopic traction maculopathy (MTM) is characterized by retinal thickening, retinoschisis, lamellar macular hole, and foveal retinal detachment and is a major cause of visual impairment in high myopia. As MTM may progress to full-thickness macular hole and macular hole retinal detachment during its natural course, vitreous surgery is effective in ...
