Myopia: Histology, clinical features, and potential implications for the etiology of axial elongation.

Myopic axial elongation is associated with various non-pathological changes.

Peripapillary border tissue of the choroid and peripapillary scleral flange in human eyes.

Peripapillary border tissue of the choroid (PBT-C) and PBT-S as continuation of the optic nerve pia mater are distinct structures, with PBT-C remodelling during myopic axial elongation and PBT-S being mostly independent of axial elongation.

Myopic Versus Glaucomatous Parapapillary Beta Zone in Myopic Eyes Versus Eyes With Secondary Angle-Closure Glaucoma.

The glaucomatous beta zone in eyes with chronic angle-closure glaucoma (with the alpha zone, parapapillary RPE drusen, thickened BM, and higher RPE cell count in the adjacent alpha zone) differs histologically from the myopic beta…

Prevalence and Associations of Peripheral Arterial Disease in China: The Beijing Eye Study.

The PAD prevalence (3.0%, 95% CI 2.0%, 4.0%) was relatively low in this cohort from rural and urban Beijing, with older age, lower educational level, lower quality of life, higher glucose serum concentration, lower estimated…

Choriocapillaris, Photoreceptors, and Inner Retinal Layer in Spatial Relationship to Parapapillary Alpha, Beta, Gamma, and Delta Zones.

Nonglaucomatous non-highly myopic eyes differ from highly myopic eyes and glaucomatous eyes in the spatial relationship of the parapapillary tissue layers.

Myopia and Other Refractive Error and Their Relationships to Glaucoma Screening.

In the range from hyperopia to moderate myopia, refractive error is not a strong glaucoma risk factor and may not be included in glaucoma screening strategies.

Clinical and histological aspects of the anatomy of myopia, myopic macular degeneration and myopia-associated optic neuropathy.

Axial myopia is characterized by a panoply of morphological, clinical and histological, features in association with longer axial length.

Glaucomatous, Glaucoma-Like, and Non-Glaucomatous Optic Neuropathy in High Myopia: The Two-Continent Study.

Highly myopic eyes had considerable prevalences of NGON and GLON/GON, usually higher than 20% and 10%, respectively.

Ocular and General Determinants of Intraocular Pressure: The Two-Continent Eye Study.

Among numerous ocular and systemic factors influencing IOP readings (with a relative low correlation coefficient), corneal curvature radius was one of the main ocular determinants.

Drusen in the macula and parapapillary region.

The findings of this study, also taking into account its methodological limitations, suggest that macular drusen and parapapillary drusen shared the morphological feature of periodic-acid-Schiff-positive material between the RPE basal membrane and BM and that…
