Abstract:
Asteroid hyalosis(AH)is a benign vitreous disease characterized by minimal impact on visual acuity and found incidentally in routine fundus examinations.Currently,its specific pathogenesis remains unclear.Clinically,AH usu-ally requires no intervention.However,when coexisting with the cataract,AH may interfere with preoperative biometric measurements(particularly axial length determination)and increase the risk of postoperative complications.AH may cause errors in axial length measurement and induce intraocular lens(IOL)calcification postoperatively.It is noted that calcifica-tion of the IOL occurs most frequently in silicone lenses.This review aims to elucidate the current research landscape of AH clinically,focusing on its pathogenesis,contributing factors,and association with cataracts.This study is expected to offer evidence-based references for clinical diagnosis and management of AH.
