Abstract:

Youngsters myopia prevalence in China is currently showing a trend of increase with the age growth, younger age of onset and more refractive degree. Myopia, especially in high myopia is a risk factor for the prevalence and progression of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). It is more difficult to diagnose and detect progression of POAG in patient with high myopia combined with POAG. Therefore, we should pay more attention to perform opportunistic screening for glaucoma in myopia patients during examination in hospital including optometry, in which the fundus photography and the establishment of personal health records and the image database on a cloud based platform is a good screening and follow-up method.
