PURPOSE:To observe the clinical features of the macular hemorrhage in myopes. METHOD:Twenty-four patients(30 eyes)with myopic macular hemorrhage were examined with slitlamp biomicroscopy,funduscope,A/B ultrasonography,and fundus fluorecein angiography(FFA). The patients were followed up for 3~18 months(average 12 months). RESULTS: Four of 26 eyes with macular hemorrhage examined with FFA were found to be due to choroidal neovaseulature,and they were associated with posterior staphyloma. The other 22 eyes without neovascular change were thought to be simple type,and 19 of them were associated with lacquer cracks. The hemorrhage in simple type cases deminished usually within 1~3 months. CONCLUSION:Myopic macular hemorrhagic eyes of neovascular type resulted usually in recurrent hemorrhage and worse prognosis in visual acuity than those of simple type. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 220-222）
