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,

Definition of Pathologic Myopia (PM)
2020The definition of pathologic myopia had not been standardized for a long time, and pathologic myopia was often confused with high myopia. These two are distinctly different; “high myopia” is defined as an eye with a high degree of myopic refractive error, and “pathologic myopia” is defined as myopic eyes with the presence of pathologic lesions in the ...

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 ...

Pathologic Myopia and Retinal Detachment
2018Pathologic myopia (PM) is described as myopia accompanied by excessive axial elongation of the globe and characteristic degenerative changes in the posterior segment, with posterior staphyloma as an important hallmark lesion. Myopia is a complex disease and the etiology of myopia is not clearly understood.

Criteria for Diagnosis of Pathologic Myopia
1998Myopia is commonly classified into three groups: mild (≤3.0 diopters, D), moderate) >3.0 D), and high (>6.0 D). The limits of these types vary with each investigator. Many researchers have designated values such as >4.0D, >6.0D, or >8.0D as high myopia [1].
