IMPACTS OF POSTERIOR STAPHYLOMA ON PARAPAPILLARY MICROVASCULATURE AND ATROPHY IN HIGH MYOPIC EYES
Eyes with high myopia and PS show wider PPA, affecting the γ-zone and δ-zone, and are at a higher risk of developing nonjuxtapapillary microvasculature dropout. Specifically, eyes with PS Types VII and IX are more susceptible to visual field damage and decreased best-corrected visual acuity. These results highlight the importance of the impact of PS on parapapillary microvasculature and PPA in high myopia.
