[Peripheral vitreochorioretinal dystrophies in myopia patients].
The problem of retinal detachment prevention is closely connected with a competent diagnosis of peripheral vitreochorioretinal dystrophies (PVCRD). The present research was aimed at analysis of PVCRD incidence in myopia of various degree and of the incidence of pathologic shifts requiring prophylactic laser coagulation or cryopexy. A total of 1022 patients (2044 eyes) with myopia of various degrees aged 5 to 58 were examined. Sclerocompression method was used in ophthalmoscopy in all the cases. PVCRD were diagnosed in 73.2% of patients. The detection rate of this condition was directly proportional to myopia degree; 52.6% in weak myopia, 70.7% in medium-grave myopia, 86.4% in high myopia. The detected patients with PVCRD were in need of preventive treatment whatever myopia degree: 38.7% of those with weak myopia, 46.9% of those with medium-grave myopia, and 46.5% of those with high myopia, 42.4% of patients with myopia on an average. Detachment of the retina was diagnosed in 4% of patients with myopia, in 0.5% surgical treatment of this condition was needed, and in 3.5% it was subclinical, this permitting a prophylactic laser coagulation.
