When an eye has myopia greater than 8 diopters, the problem is known as pathological or high myopia. Degenerative myopia, also called malignant progressive myopia, causes progressive stretching and gradual damage of the retina, choroid, vitreous, sclera, and optic nerve. This type of myopia needs regular clinical evaluation. At this time, the progression of this eye disease cannot be stopped. However, some complications of degenerative myopia such as retinal detachment, macular edema, and glaucoma, can be treated.
