“…This inconsistency might be caused by individual differences. The values measured in our subjects were different from those of subjects in previous studies [26][27][28] , which might be a result of different refractive errors and examination methods.…”

Purpose: To quantitatively analyze the shape of eyes with high myopia and provide assistance for posterior scleral reinforcement (PSR) using high-resolution three-dimensional (3D) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Method: In all, 260 eyes of 134 patients with high myopia were assessed in this study; 120 emmetropic volunteers were enrolled as a control group. The subjects were examined using 3D T2-weighted CUBE sequences. Results: The eyeballs' axial, horizontal, and vertical lengths were longer and their volume was larger in the subjects with high myopia than in those with emmetropia. The sites of the four recti and optic nerve attachment to the eye were clearly seen on 3D MRI, and the geometric information could be quantified for PSR preparation. The scleral strip was revealed by 3D MRI after surgery. Conclusions: 3D MRI can quantitatively analyze the shape of eyes with high myopia. 3D MRI examination might be necessary before and after PSR for preoperative preparation and postoperative assessment.

“…It is also noteworthy that the methods used by Bite et al (1985) and Thaller (1997) to determine eyeball volume were different from that used in the present study. Bite et al (1985) used computed tomography (CT) images while Thaller (1997) used a water displacement method to find the eyeball volume. The difference in eyeball volume found may be attributable to the differences in methodology used in these studies.…”

“…S urgical techniques for enucleation of the globe have been influenced by classic concepts of orbital anatomy. 1,2 Volume replacement and restoration of movement and comfort have been considered important aspects of a successful surgical outcome. [1][2][3][4] Volume deficiency and soft tissue displacement can contribute to complications such as enophthalmos and superior sulcus defect that compromise final results.…”
