Assessment of superficial retinal microvascular density in healthy myopia.

This study reveals that superficial parapapillary microvascular density is lower in high myopia and has correlation with AL, IOP, and parapapillary RNFL thickness. It also indicates that superficial parafoveal microvascular density tends to be unaffected by healthy myopia. These retinal microvascular alterations may facilitate understanding the pathogenesis of glaucomatous optic nerve damage in high myopia.
