Chorioretinal Atrophy after Spontaneous Resolution of Myopic Foveoschisis

Abstract EN

Myopic foveoschisis is one of the major complications of pathologic myopia, and it was most recently identified by new imaging modalities.

During the natural evolution of this complication, anatomical and visual improvement without surgical intervention is an unusual course, and most of these eyes remain stable or progressively worsen.

The authors report a case of a highly myopic eye that developed patchy chorioretinal atrophy after spontaneous resolution of myopic foveoschisis, which to the best of our knowledge has not been reported previously in the medical literature.
