Abstract
High myopia exhibits corneal characteristics similar to corneas of eyes with no spherical ametropia, except for toricity. While the posterior segment elongates, development of high myopia appears not to affect corneal characteristics. Corneal toricity may be associated with evolution toward high myopia by perturbing mechanisms of emmetropization.
