The prevalence of myopia and its severe/progressive visually impairing forms is increasing all over the globe. Most of the preliminary clinical research has focused on rehabilitation and treatment of its complications. Pharmacological prevention of myopic progression has shown encouraging results recently and currently the scleral structure is believed to be responsible for disease progression. In this article, we have hypothesized injecting a biological cement in the potential space between the choroid and the sclera to halt the progressive elongation of the eye ball while preventing complications related to myopia.
近视及其严重/进行性致盲形式的患病率在全球范围内不断上升。大多数初步的临床研究都集中在其并发症的康复和治疗上。最近,药物预防近视进展已经显示出令人鼓舞的结果,目前认为巩膜结构是导致疾病进展的原因。在本文中,我们假设在脉络膜和巩膜之间的潜在空间中注射一种生物水泥,以阻止眼球的进行性伸长,同时防止与近视相关的并发症。
