Abstract
Pathologic myopia encompasses a variety of chorioretinal abnormalities in the macular area, such as tigroid fundus, chorioretinal atrophy, large peripapillary conus, foveal detachment, and/or choroidal neovascularization. Therefore there has been no valuable indicator for evaluating the functional status other than the visual acuity of eyes with pathologic myopia. Even standard visual field tests are of little help in evaluating these abnormalities. Microperimetry-1 (MP-1, NIDEK, Italy) promises to provide more information because of lesion-related perimetry with monitoring the fundus in eyes with pathologic myopia. It is also useful to evaluate treatment effectiveness or improvement in pathologic myopia with complications because this may provide information not available by other means.
