The Morphological Relationship Between Dome-Shaped Macula and Myopic Retinoschisis: A Cross-sectional Study of 409 Highly Myopic Eyes.

ABSTRACT: Purpose:The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical features of dome-shaped macula (DSM) in highly myopic eyes and its morphological relationship with myopic retinoschisis (MRS). Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 409 eyes of 409 patients with high myopia who had spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) examinations were included. The associations of DSM with the distribution of MRS and ocular biometry were evaluated. Results:Of 409 eyes, DSM was detected in 64 eyes (15.6%). The eyes with DSM were more myopic (-18.8 ± 3.9 vs. -13.4 ± 5.9; P < 0.001) and had longer axial length (31.7 ± 2.4 vs. 29.5 ± 2.5; P < 0.001) compared with those without DSM. A higher rate of extrafoveal retinoschisis (35.9% vs. 9.6%; P < 0.001) and a lower rate of foveoschisis (10.9% vs. 26.1%
