Correlation between axial length and the elasticity of the posterior segment of eyeball in myopic eyes without posterior staphyloma: a shear wave elastography-based cross-sectional study.

This study found that in myopic eyes, posterior eye wall elasticity, especially at the macula, significantly decreases with increasing axial length, potentially explaining macular staphyloma formation.
