Efficacy and Safety of Posterior Scleral Reinforcement on Controlling Myopia in Adults With High Myopia

Posterior Scleral Reinforcement for Adults With High Myopia

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of posterior scleral reinforcement on controlling myopia progression, including change in refraction, axial elongation as well as sight-threatening complications, in adults with high myopia. Half the adults will receive posterior scleral reinforcement, while the other half will receive no surgerical treatment.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Cycloplegic spherical equivalent less than -6.0 D
• Myopia progression greater than 1.0 D per year
• Normal IOP, no strabismus or any other ocular pathological changes
• no any other ocular or systematic diseases that may affect refractive development

Exclusion Criteria:

• Currently or history using other interventions to control myopia progression (acupuncture, drugs, contact lens, ear needles and so on)
• Unable to cooperate with the ocular examination,questionnaire survey,or orthokeratology wearing
