Research Progress of Optical Coherence Tomography in Myopic Fundus Lesions
Myopia is the most common eye disease in the world.It is estimated that the prevalence of myopia and high myopia will continue to increase globally from 2020 to 2050.Myopia is a common clinical eye disease with high prevalence and poor prevention effect.Pathological myopia is accompanied by fundus lesions,thinning of the ocular wall,increased degree of myopia,sclera extension and so on,causing fundus tissue damage,also known as highly progressive myopia.With the continuous development of ophthalmic auxiliary examinations,some examination methods have been able to accurately measure the fundus changes of myopic patients in vitro,such as optical coherence tomography(OCT).This examination has the advantages of non-invasive and simple operation.It can quantitatively analyze the retinal structure through non-contact,so that doctors can more easily observe retinal tomography and obtain more accurate retinal information,so as to provide more basis for evaluating fundus lesions.At present,OCT has been widely used in clinical or scientific ophthalmology to obtain high-resolution retinal cross-sectional images,which has become an indispensable examination method in the diagnosis and management of complications related to fundus diseases.This article reviews the application progress of OCT in myopic fundus macular,optic disc,retina,choroid and other structural lesions,in order to explore the application value of OCT as a screening tool for myopic fundus.
