Choroidal neovascularization in pathological myopia
Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2012Myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is one of the leading causes of visual impairment worldwide. The clinical and socioeconomic impact of myopic CNV in Asian countries is particularly significant due to rising trend in the prevalence and severity of pathological myopia.

CORRELATIONS BETWEEN EXPERIMENTAL MYOPIA MODELS AND HUMAN PATHOLOGIC MYOPIA
Retina, 2019Purpose: To analyze the hallmark features of pathologic myopia developed in animal models and compare them with those seen in patients. Methods: A literature review was performed to identify animal models that exhibited key features of pathologic myopia, namely posterior staphyloma,

Prolidase deficiency associated with pathologic myopia
Ophthalmic Genetics, 1998Deficiency of prolidase, a key enzyme in proline metabolism, is extremely rare and is usually associated with skin lesions, recurrent infections, characteristic facies, mental retardation, and splenomegaly. These clinical features are largely due to inhibition of normal recycling of proline, which causes an alteration in the metabolism of collagen and ...

Peripapillary intrachoroidal cavitation in pathological myopia
Archivos de la Sociedad Española de Oftalmología (English Edition), 2014A 54 year old woman with pathological myopia, presented with an elevated, yellowish-white lesion at the inferior border of the myopic conus in her left eye. The optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrated an intrachoroidal hyporeflective space. The fluorescein angiography examination (FA) showed early hypofluorescence with delayed staining, with no

Cataract Extraction in Pathological Myopia
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1976SUMMARY Fifty-three cataract extractions in eyes with pathological myopia effected visual improvement in 47 eyes (89%). The median visual acuity increased from a preoperative level of 20/300 to 20/40 postoperatively. The incidence in this series of vitreous loss (1.9%) and retinal detachment (1.9%), are within the expected range of such ...

Lacquer Crack Lesions in Pathologic Myopia
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1975In evaluating the anatomic and functional status of 22 eyes of 14 patients demonstrating lacquer cracks, these lesions occurred in the eyes of young adults with posterior staphylomas and markedly increased axial lengths. Decreased visual acuity and altered visual fields were the rule; choroidal hemorrhage and focal chorioretinal atrophy were less ...
