SHORT SIGHTEDNESS
Condition in which incident parallel rays come to a focus anterior to the light sensitive layer of retina with accomodation at rest .
MYOPIA
![Page 3: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
OPTICS OF MYOPIA
The optical system is too powerful for its axial length
Image of distant object on retina is made up of circle of diffusion formed by divergent beam since the parallel rays of light coming from the infinity are focused in front of the retina
![Page 4: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Far point is finite point in front of eye

![Page 30: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Optical treatment of myopia Concave lenses
Basic rule – minimum acceptance providing maximum vision
Modes of prescribing concave lens-
1. Spectacles
2. Contact lens
TREATMENT OF MYOPIA
![Page 31: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Contact lenses are used in case of high myopia as they avoid peripheral distortion and minification produced by strong concave spectacle lens
![Page 32: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Radial keratotomy
Photo-Refractive keratectomy (PRK)
LASIK
Fucala’s lens extraction
ICL (Implantable Collamer Lens) or Phakic IOL
ICR ( Intra Corneal Ring implantation)
Orthokeratology
SURGICAL TREATMENT OF
MYOPIA
![Page 33: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Radial keratotomy Obsolete now a days
Making deep radial incisions in peripheral part of cornea leaving the central a 4mm optical zone
These incisions on healing ; flatten the central cornea thereby reducing its refractive power
Correct low to moderate myopia(2-6D)
DISADVANTAGES:
Cornea is weakened – globe rupture in sports persons
Uneven healing – irregular astigmatism
Patient may feel glare at night

Photo refractive keratectomy (PRK)
A central optical zone of anterior corneal stroma is photoablatedusing excimer laser (193nm uv flash) to cause flattening of central cornea
Correction for -2 to -6D of myopia
![Page 36: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Disadvantages:
• Post operative recovery is slow
• Pain and discomfort
• Residual corneal haze in centre affecting vision
• Expensive
![Page 37: Myopia](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052413/55a61cc01a28ab5d4c8b4583/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Flap of 130-160 micron thickness of anterior corneal tissue is raised
Midstromal tissue is ablated directly with an excimer laser beam
ultimately flattening the cornea
