[Natural development of myopia in indications for scleroplasty surgery].
The authors submit a report on investigation of progressing myopia in children and adults meeting the criteria for indication of scleroplastic surgery. However, the operation was not performed. In children with myopia gravis (5 eyes) the progression of myopia in the course of six years was 1.1 +/- 1.02 D, in children with myopia progressiva (14 eyes) 2.9 +/- 1.4 D/6 years. In adults with myopia gravis (96 eyes) the progression in 6 years was 1.5 +/- 1.9 D, in adults with myopia progressiva (7 eyes) the progression in 6 years was 1.1 +/- 1.2 D. The difference in the two groups was statistically significant at the 1% level. It is necessary to seek procedures to prevent progression of myopia to higher values.
