Assessment of optic disc morphological characteristics and related factors of highly myopic eyes in Chinese school-aged children.

The peripapillary atrophy area, BMO area, border length, BMO distance, and BMO minimum rim width increased, but peripapillary choroidal thickness, retinal nerve fibre layer thickness decreased with axial elongation of the globe in young myopia children. Longer axial length and border length were positively correlated with lower peripapillary choroidal thickness, and a smaller border tissue angle was positively correlated with lower peripapillary choroidal thickness were found in this study. Monitoring of border length and border tissue angle is essential in the early stages of myopia in children.
