title: [State of peripheral sections of the fundus oculi in progressive high myopia].
abstract: The incidence and structure of peripheral vitreochorioretinal dystrophies (PVCRD) were analyzed in 219 patients with high rapidly progressing myopia, aged 7 to 48, with different forms and degrees of the condition. A 'cross section' of the condition incidence has shown the peak of dystrophy accumulation at the age of 12-14. PVCRD forms recorded in the youngest age are peripheral retinoschisis (37.4%), retinal dystrophy (14.8%), and retinal ruptures (7.8%); these forms are detectable in the majority of patients by the age of 17-20. On the whole PVCRD develop earlier and are more frequent in females than in male patients, though retinal dystrophy and ruptures were recorded in men 1.4 times more frequently than in women. Bearing in mind the relationship between PVCRD and myopia development time and growth, the authors recommend prophylactic interventions at the age of 9-11.
