Abstract:
Objective To describe localized peripapillary detachment in highly myopic eyes, and to analyze the possible cause of this newly recognized fundus lesion. Methods From December 2002 to January 2004, 10 eyes from 7 patients with high myopia were identified to have localized peripapillary detachment by optical coherent tomography (OCT). The features were described together with the fundus fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography and multifocal electroretinogram. Results Peripapillary detachment was not the reason for any patient to be referred for examinations. The reasons of vision decrease or lower BCVA were relatively severe myopic chorioretinal changes, CNV, pre macular membrane formation, and amblyopia. The areas of peripapillary detachment were all located within the posterior staphyloma. The length of the detached retina was undoubtedly shorter than that of the corresponding RPE and inner layer of choroids, which attached to sclera, on OCT. Conclusion Peripapillary detachment is probably a benign complication of staphyloma
