Application of posterior scleral reinforcement material in the surgical treatment of high myopia / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

@#Posterior scleral reinforcement surgery is a common method for the treatment for high myopia, which can strengthen the intensity of sclera and inhibit the progression of high myopia. The posterior scleral reinforcement materials are very important, including biological materials such as pericardium, donor sclera, umbilical cord, dura mater, acellular allograft dermis and so on; non biological synthetic materials such as polyester fiber, polyester mesh sponge and plasma-modified silicone graft and so on. These materials were used in the experimental animals and clinical patients, and showed obvious effect on controlling the progress of high myopia.
