  • Research progress of surgical treatment of myopic foveoschisis

    Myopic foveoschisis (MF) has mild early symptoms, however, its course is progressive. When the secondary macular detachment or macular hole occurs, it can cause severe vision loss. Therefore, it is generally believed that MF patients should undergo surgical intervention early after the onset of symptoms to prevent them from further developing into a macular hole or macular hole retinal detachment.It is generally believed that the traction of the vitreous cortex and posterior scleral staphyloma to the retina plays an important role in the occurrence and development of MF. The operation mode is divided into vitreoretinal surgery and macular buckling, the former release the retinal traction via the vitreous body and the latter reattaches the retina via the extrascleral approach. There is no consensus on whether to perform internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade in vitreoretinal surgery and the fovea-sparing internal limiting membrane peeling has become a hot topic in recent years. Compared with vitreoretinal surgery, macular buckling can release the traction of the retina caused by posterior scleral staphyloma, but it cannot relieve the traction in the tangential direction of the retina. Vitreoretinal surgery and extrascleral surgery seems to make up the shortcomings of both, however, the effect of treatment on patients still needs further verification. In clinical work, it is necessary to conduct individualized analysis of MF patients, weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each operation, and choose the most suitable operation mode for patients with different conditions. In the future, the emphasis of our work is to develop operation mode with great curative effect and less complications.

  • Characteristics of highly myopic choroidal neovascularization by optical coherence tomography angiography and analysis of macular choriocapillaris density

    ObjectiveTo observe the imaging characteristics of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and the changes of choroidal capillary density (CCD) in the eyes of patients with high myopia choroidal neovascularization (mCNV). MethodsA case-control study. From January 2018 to October 2020, 50 cases of mCNV patients with 50 eyes (mCNV group) were included in the study. There were 18 males and 32 females; their age was 42.11±11.66 years old. Fifty eyes of 50 patients with normal fundus with matching myopia refractive power (≥6.00 D) were selected as the simple high myopia group, and 50 normal volunteers (refractive power -0.25-0.25 D) while 50 eyes were selected as the normal control group. There was no statistically significant difference in age (F=0.028) and gender composition ratio (χ2=0.136) among the three groups of patients (P>0.05); the difference in best corrected visual acuity was statistically significant (F=14.762, P=0.004). Compared with mCNV group and pure high myopia group, the refractive index (t=-0.273) and axial length (t=0.312) of the examined eyes were not statistically significant (P>0.05). OCTA instrument was used to measure the CCD in the macular area of the examined eye. Analysis of variance was used for comparison of measurement data among the three groups; χ2 test was used for comparison of categorical variables. The paired t test was performed to compare the CCD of the mCNV patient's eye and the contralateral eye. ResultsAmong the 50 eyes in the mCNV group, Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and mixed choroidal neovascularization (CNV) were 12 (24%, 12/50), 34 (68%, 34/50), and 4 (8%, 4/50) eyes, respectively. Corresponding to the OCTA cross-sectional image of the lesion, there was a clear “flower cluster”-like strong blood flow signal. Among them, the focal shape, the filament shape, and the group net shape were 6 (12%, 6/50), 8 (11%, 8/50), and 36 (72%, 36/50) eyes, respectively. The CCD of the eyes in the mCNV group, the pure high myopia group, and the normal control group were (57.39±3.24)%, (59.33±2.23)%, and (61.87±1.62)%, respectively. The CCD of the eyes in the mCNV group was significantly lower than that of the simple high myopia group (P=0.030) and the normal control group (P<0.001). The CCD of the affected eye and the contralateral eye in the mCNV group were (57.39±3.24)% and (59.82±3.94)%, respectively; there was no statistically significant difference between the CCD of the affected eye and the contralateral eye (t=-0.496, P=0.100). The CCDs of eyes with Ⅰ, Ⅱ and mixed CNV were (57.38±3.31)%, (57.39±2.83)%, and (57.36±4.21)%, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in CCD (F=1.476), age (F=0.274), sex ratio (χ2=0.825), and diopter (F=0.348) in different CNV types (P>0.05). ConclusionThe mCNV is mostly type Ⅱ, and OCTA has a "bloom" appearance of abnormal reticular blood vessels; the CCD is significantly reduced, and it is bilateral.
