Efficacy and Safety of Posterior Scleral Reinforcement on Controlling Myopia in Adults With High Myopia

December 20, 2017 updated by: Shi-Ming Li, Beijing Tongren Hospital

Posterior Scleral Reinforcement for Adults With High Myopia

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of posterior scleral reinforcement on controlling myopia progression, including change in refraction, axial elongation as well as sight-threatening complications, in adults with high myopia. Half the adults will receive posterior scleral reinforcement, while the other half will receive no surgerical treatment.

  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Surgical group
In this arm, the adults with high myopia will be given posterior scleral reinforcement.
Posterior scleral reinforcement (pPSR) is a procedure applied with autologous or biological material or synthetic materials reinforcing pole of the sclera after eyeball, in order to prevent or alleviate myopic development.
No Intervention: Control group
In this arm, the adults with high myopia will not be given any surgical treatment.
