About this trial

Study aiming to evaluate Macular Vascular Density in High Myopes without pathological myopic maculopathy in outpatient clinic in Sohag teaching hospital using OCTA .

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

All myopic patients with axial high myopia (-6 spherical refractive error or more) of different age groups .

Disqualifiers

-History of other any ocular diseases , systemic diseases that may affect the ocular circulation .

Previous intraocular surgery or ocular injury .

Any patient with pathological myopic maculopathy as epiretinal membrane, foveoschisis, macular holes, lamellar holes, Lacquers cracks, choroidal neovascularization and retinal atrophy .

Trial design

Design model

Treatments tested in this trial

  • optical coherence tomography angiography

    Other intervention

    OCTA will be used to evaluate the macular vascular density and to exclude patients with pathological myopic maculopathy

Primary outcomes

1

Outcome of evaluation of vascular density in high myopes

Correlation between macular vascular density in high myopes and their : Uncorrected visual acuity in diopters . Best corrected visual acuity in diopters . Spherical equivalent refraction that measured through this equivalent (spherical error + 1/2 cylindrical error ) . Central macular thickness in micrometers . To see how does ischemia affects vision in high myopes .
