Abstract
Based on OCT examination, the most common macular change in highly myopic eyes was maculoschisis, followed by incomplete posterior vitreous detachment, disruption of the photoreceptor inner segment/outer segment interface, epiretinal membranes, macular defects in Bruch's membrane, clumping of the retinal pigment epithelium, vitreofoveal adhesion, and macular holes. The most important macular changes with a negative effect on best-corrected visual acuity were a disruption of the photoreceptor inner segment/outer segment interface and epiretinal membranes.
