  • Title: [Progressive myopia and posterior scleral reinforcement: retrospective studies].
    Author: Morelle N, Wéry V, Croughs P.
    Journal: Bull Soc Belge Ophtalmol; 1996; 262():43-5. PubMed ID: 9376922.
    Abstract:
    We evaluated the long and middle terms results in a retrospective study of Posterior Scleral Reinforcement in progressive myopia. We discuss the inclusion criteria and the results in terms of refraction, visual acuity, axial length, intra-ocular pressure, complications and patient's subjective appreciation. The surgical procedure of Posterior Scleral Reinforcement stabilises the evolution of progressive myopia in time. A systemic prospective study is needed for more precisions on those first encouraging results.
