Large Cohort of 1000 Patients With Severe Myopia

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Myopia, Severe
Interventions
Other: Structural and fonctional phynotyping
Registration Number
NCT05849974
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier National d'Ophtalmologie des Quinze-Vingts
Brief Summary

The prevalence of myopia and severe myopia are increasing and will affect 50% and 10% of the population respectively. Severe myopia exposes an increased risk of glaucoma, cataract, retinal detachment and myopic maculopathy, a source of visual impairment.

To date, no European cohort study has been conducted to estimate the rate of these complications and to study the predictive parameters.

Detailed Description

This study allows to describe the evolution of different ophthalmological parameters of a population of strong myopes during their follow-up for 10 years using multimodal imaging techniques of the retina.

Prospective, longitudinal, multicentric, non-randomized cohort study with constitution of a biological collection.

This study will include major and minor patients with high myopia
