[Progressive myopia and posterior scleral reinforcement: retrospective studies]

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.
