Long-term natural history of highly myopic eyes with a dome-shaped macula with or without untreated serous retinal detachment: A 4-year follow-up study

British Journal of Ophthalmology Sep 10, 2020

Viola F, Leone G, Garoli E, et al. - Researchers conducted this prospective, single-centre study to assess the long-term functional and morphological changes occurring in myopic eyes with a dome-shaped macula (DSM), with or without untreated serous retinal detachment (SRD). They recruited consecutive cases of highly myopic patients with DSM with or without an SRD. Eyes with choroidal neovascularisation have been excluded. Participants in the study were 18 patients (26 eyes), the mean age was 61.2. Thirteen eyes had SRD and 13 did not at baseline. The authors discovered that the DSMs were either horizontal or round. During the 48-month follow-up period, there were no significant differences in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) between eyes with and without SRD. Despite the fluctuations and persistence of the SRDs, BCVA remained clinically stable over 4 years without treatment.
