MYOPIA
• Short sightedness
• Myopia is a greek word meaning *close
the eye*
• Refractive error I
• Parallel rays of light coming from
infinity are focused in front of the
retina.
• Accommodation is at rest
3
Mechanism of production
•
•
•
•
•
Axial
Curvatural
Positional
Index
Myopia due to excessive accommodation
4
Optics of myopia
• Far point is finite (In front of the eye)
• Emmetropic eye it is at infinity
• Higher the myopia the shorter the distance
• Far point is 1mt from the eye ,there is 1D of
myopia
• Nodal point is further away from retina
Accommodation need not develop
normally resulting in
Convergence insufficiency
Exophoria

Congenital myopia
Frequently seen in
Premature babies
Marfan’s syndrome
Homocystinuria
Increase in axial length
Increase inOverall globe size
Since birth, diagnosed at age 2-3 years
If unilateral, as anisometropia, may develop
amblyopia, strabismus
Usually 8-10 D, remain constant
Bilateral- difficulty in distant vision, hold
things very close
10
Associated conditions
Convergent squint
Cataract
Microphthalmos
Aniridia
Megalocornea
Congenital Separation of retina
Management
Early Correction is desirable
Retinoscopy under full cycloplegia
Early full correction desirable
Poor prognosis
11
• Simple / developmental myopia
Physiological error not associated with any
disease of the eye
Etiology :
Normal biological variation in development of
eye
Inheritence
12
Associated factors
Role of diet
Theory of excessive near work
13
Clinical picture
Rarely present at birth
Rather born hypermetropic, become myopic
Begins at 7-10 years, stabilizing around mid
teens
Usually around 5D, never exceeds 8D
14
Symptoms
Poor vision for distance
Asthenopic symptoms develop due to
dissociation between accommodation and
convergence
Convergence weakness, exophoria,
suppression
Excessive accommodation inducing ciliary
spasm and artificially increasing the amount
of myopia
Psychological outlook
15
Signs
Large and prominent
Deep AC
Large, sluggishly reacting pupils
Normal fundus, rarely crescent
Usually doesn't exceed 6-8D
• Retinoscopy under full cycloplegia
16
• Pathological / degenerative /
progressive myopia
Rapidly progressive associated with
degenerative changes in the eye
Etiology
Rapid axial growth of the eyeball outside the
normal biological variations of development
Role of heredity
Role of general growth process
17
Genetic factors
process
General growth
More growth of retina
Stretching of sclera
Increased axial length
Degeneration of choroid
Degeneration of retina
Degeneration of vitreous
18

Muscae volitantes / floating black
opacities
19
Signs
EYE Large, prominent eyes simulating
exophthalmos
CORNEA large
ANTERIOR CHAMBER deep
LENS show opacities at the posterior pole
due to aberration of lenticular metabolism
and due to overstretching anterior
dislocation may also occur
20
VITEROUS degeneration,viterous
liquefication,vitreous detachment present
as WEISS REFLEX
SCLERA thinning resulting in formation of
STAPHYLOMA
VISUAL FIELD DEFECTS show Contraction
and in some ring scotomas present
21
DISC

Myopic Crescent on the temporal side of the
disc
Choroidal Crescent
Supertraction of the retina
Inverse myopia Myopic crescent situated
nasally and supertraction of the retina
temporally
called as INVERSE CRESCENT
Peripapillary Atrophy

Treatment
Optical treatment
Appropriate concave lenses
Minimum acceptance providing maximum
vision
27
Guidelines
LOW DEGREES OF MYOPIA (Up to -6D)
IN YOUNG SUBJECTS
Defect should never be overcorrected and advised for
constant use to avoid squinting and develop a normal
ACCOMMODATION-CONVERGENCE reflex
IN ADULTS
Receiving spectacle for the first time,have the ciliary
muscle that are unaccostomed to accommodate
efficiently so that lens of slightly lower power(1 or 2 D)
may be prescribed for reading,especially if engaged in to
any greater extent.Above the age of 40 years,when
accommodation fails physiologically, a weaker glass for
28
near work is essential
HIGH DEGREES OF MYOPIA
Full correction rarely be tolerated so we attempt to
reduce the correction as little as is compatible with
comfort for binocular vision. We prescribe the lens
with which the greatest visual acuity is obtained
without distress
29

ADVANTAGES OF SPECTACLES
Economical
Allow incorporation of prism,bifocals,pal
which can be used for the management
of esophoria or any accommodative
disorders accompanying myopia
Spectacles require less accommodation
than contact lens for myopia that
likelihood of accommodative asthenopia
or near point blur in patients
approaching presbyopia may be less
31
DISPENSING SPECTACLES IN HIGH
MYOPIA
•
•
•
•
High index lens materials
Lighter lens materials
Reduced eyesize of selected frames
Minus lenticular lens designs
32
ADVANTAGES OF CONTACT LENS
• Contact lens provides cosmosis
• Large retinal image size and slightly better visual
acuity in severe myopia

Photorefractive
Keratectomy
(PRK)
• Involves direct laser ablation of corneal
stroma after removal of corneal epithelium
mechanically or using a laser beam.
• Done using Excimer laser
• MUNNERLYN EQN: depth of ablation
(micrometer)=[diameter of optical
zone(mm)]² × 1/3power(Diopter)
• For myopic a large amount of ablation is
done in central cornea than in the
periphery.
• Give good results for -2D to -6D of myopia 35
LASIK
Laser Assisted In situ
Keratomileusis
• Method:Anterior flap of cornea is lifted with a keratome and
excimer laser is used to sculpt the stromal bed to change the
refractive error of eye
• Corrects 0.5 to 12D of myopia and upto 8D of astigmatism
• Guidelines:Age more than 18yrs
BCVA better than 6/12
Stable refraction for last 1yr
Absence of corneal disease & ectasia
• Note:
• (1) In no case the residual bed thickness after the ablation
should measure 250microns so as to avoid central corneal
ectasia
• (2) Ideally the ablation should be done within 30sec of the
preparation of flap
36
LASEK
Laser subepithelial
Keratomileusis
•
•
•
•
Indications:
Low myopia
Irregular astigmatism
LASIK complications in contralateral
eye
• Thin corneal pachymetry
• Predisposition to trauma
• Glaucoma suspect
37
• Method:
• Simple inexpensive procedure that
involves creation of epithelial flap after
exposure to 18% alcohol for 25sec &
subsequent replacement of flap after
laser ablation
38
RK
Radial Keratotomy
• It refers to making deep corneal incisions(initially
16,now down to 4) in the peripheral part of cornea
leaving about 4mm central optical zone
• The incisions are made almost down to the level of
Descemet’s Membrane
• These incisions on healing flatten the central
cornea thereby reducing its refractive power
• For low to moderate degree of myopia(-1.5 to 6D of myopia)
39
Epikeratophakia
• For high degree of myopia (upto 20D)
• Method:
• The epithelium is removed & then a
pocket is fashioned under the edge
of the remaining epithelium & into
this is inserted the cryolathed donor
homograft
• Preserved material can also be used
40
NON CORNEAL
INTERVENTIONS
• (A) REMOVAL OF CLEAR LENS
• We know that an aphakic eye is strongly
hypermetropic
• If an eye with an axial myopia of -24D is deprived
of its lens it will become emmetropic without any
correcting lens
• Note:
• Whenever surgery on clear lens is contemplated
the eye is examined thoroughly for abnormalties
like Raised IOP,Vitreous & retinal degeneration
etc
41
• (b)Phakic intraocular lenses
• An IOL of appropriate power is implanted
inside the eye without touching normal
crystalline lens thus without disturbing
accomodation
• Method can be used to correct both myopia &
hypermetropia
• Phakic IOL types:
• PC IOL
• Angle supported IOL
• Iris claw lens
42
INTRA CORNEAL
RING(ICR)
IMPLANTATION
• ICR implantation into the peripheral
cornea approx.upto 2/3rd of stromal
depth can also be considered for
correction of myopia
• It results in a vaulting effect that
flattens the central cornea
decreasing the myopia
• The procedure has the advantage of
being reversible
