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.

Pathological myopia classification with simultaneous lesion segmentation using deep learning
Computer Methods and Programs in Biomedicine, 2021 BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pathological myopia (PM) is the seventh leading cause of blindness, with a reported global prevalence up to 3%. Early and automated PM detection from fundus images could aid to prevent blindness in a world population that is ...

Eye & Contact Lens: Science & Clinical Practice, 2022
Abstract: Pathologic myopia is a leading cause of vision loss worldwide and is most prevalent in developed nations in East and Southeast Asia. Although the pathophysiologic mechanisms behind pathologic myopia have yet to be elucidated, the process is thought to stem from excessive axial elongation of the globe and subsequent degeneration of ...

Epidemiology of Myopia, High Myopia, and Pathological Myopia
2021Myopia is a major health problem throughout the world due to its increasingly high prevalence in the past few decades. Myopia, in particular high myopia, is associated with a number of ocular complications such as glaucoma and cataract that are potentially blinding.

PATHOLOGIC FINDINGS IN PATHOLOGIC MYOPIA
Retina, 1992A retrospective study was conducted of 308 eyes with pathologic myopia obtained from 202 patients (23 surgical eyes; 285 post mortem eyes) over a 67-year period. Histopathologic findings and percentage of eyes affected, in decreasing order of frequency, were myopic configuration of the optic nerve head, 37.7%; posterior staphyloma, 35.4%; degenerative ...

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2016
Complications from pathologic myopia are a major cause of visual impairment and blindness, especially in east Asia. The eyes with pathologic myopia may develop loss of the best-corrected vision due to various pathologies in the macula, peripheral retina and the optic nerve.

Complications of Pathologic Myopia
Eye & Contact Lens: Science & Clinical Practice, 2016Pathologic myopia (PM) is one of the leading causes of visual impairment worldwide. The pathophysiology of PM is not fully understood, but the axial elongation of the eye followed by chorioretinal thinning is suggested as a key mechanism. Pathologic myopia may lead to many complications such as chorioretinal atrophy, foveoschisis, choroidal ...

Pathologic myopia is defined by a refractive error exceeding -6.00 diopters with associated degenerative retinal changes due to axial elongation. Key risk factors include increased age, axial length, and high myopic spherical equivalent. Clinical presentation often begins in childhood and may include visual symptoms like scotomas and metamorphopsias ...

Posterior staphyloma in pathologic myopia
Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2019A posterior staphyloma is an outpouching of a circumscribed region of the posterior fundus and has been considered a hallmark of pathologic myopia. Occurring in highly myopic eyes, it is histologically characterized by a relatively abrupt scleral thinning starting at the staphyloma edge, a pronounced de-arrangement of scleral collagen fibrils and a ...
