What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the long-term evolution of clinical and imaging characteristics in patients suffering from pathological myopia. It will involve both retrospective and prospective evaluations, focusing on specific clinical, tomographic, and angiographic variables over a minimum follow-up period of five years. The study does not involve any drug interventions, allowing for a natural observation of the condition's progression.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide valuable insights into the long-term management and understanding of pathological myopia.

How similar studies have gone: While there may be other studies on myopia, this specific observational approach focusing on long-term outcomes is relatively novel.
