Brief Summary

Myopia is the most common refractive eye disease worldwide. The number of cases is up to 2 billion. In recent years, the incidence of myopia in China is obviously rising trend. As early as the 2018 national health committee epidemiological data show that teenage myopia rate in China has been the first in the world, and has become the influence in China, especially the youth eye health major public health problem. In recent years, prevention and control measures for myopia have emerged in endlessly, such as increasing outdoor activity time, sufficient sunlight exposure, orthokeratology and local use of low-concentration atropine can partially prevent the occurrence or slow down the progression of myopia. But the effects are limited and cannot completely inhibit the development of myopia. In recent years, with the in-depth study of myopia, it is found that myopia is not only the change of diopter, but also the pathological changes of the whole eyeball shape and corresponding tissues. The incidence of myopia is closely related to the biological parameters of the eyeball, which has become a hotspot of clinical research in recent years. Current studies believe that eyeball biological parameters such as axial length, scleral thickness, choroid thickness are related to the occurrence of myopia, among which the change of scleral structure and shape, namely scleral remodeling, is considered to be an important factor in all visual stimuli leading to myopia. A large number of studies have also shown that scleral remodeling can lead to changes in the scleral biomechanics, thereby promoting the development of myopia. Multiple studies have shown a negative correlation between myopia and scleral thickness, with the thinning of the lower anterior sclera being the most significant. The lower anterior sclera is considered to be a marker for predicting the development of myopia, but some studies have found no correlation between the two. Such differences in the results may be related to the precision of the measurement instrument, the sample size of the included cases, age, and the grouping of different refractive states. The correlation between various biological parameters of the eyeball, especially the sclera, and myopia is not clear at present. Therefore, more penetrating and clearer instruments, more sample sizes, and more scientific grouping are needed for further research and confirmation.
