High myopia is a common disease in ophthalmology. It refers to myopia above 600 degrees, which will cause harm to the eyes. The most important aspects are the following. First, high myopia patients are prone to retinal detachment. It is due to the extension of the eye axis of high myopia patients and the retina being stretched, so that the peripheral parts of the retina are easy to show weak areas. For example, dry holes, lattice-like degeneration areas, etc., are easy to occur from these weak areas of retinal detachment, thus endangering the health of the eye. Second, high myopia patients are prone to glaucoma, after the eye axis is extended, the internal angle of the eyeball and trabecular meshwork and other structures show structural changes, and the circulation of water in the room will show obstacles, resulting in increased internal pressure in the eyeball, which has a great relationship with the compression of the optic nerve.
