Relationship between paravascular abnormalities and foveoschisis in highly myopic patients

Paravascular abnormalities observed by spectral domain optical coherence tomography are risk factors for retinoschisis in eyes with high myopia

“…; Kamal‐Salah et al. ), all paravascular holes were lamellar holes, and no full‐thickness holes were found in our study (Fig. ).…”

“…; Kamal‐Salah et al. ). The relatively high incidence of paravascular microfolds in our study may be attributed to the expanded OCT scan area of interest.…”

“…; Kamal‐Salah et al. ). Several studies have been conducted to explore the pathogenesis of paravascular microfolds and cysts.…”

“…However, a more recent study suggested that the paravascular microfold was the first lesion to appear at the site of retinal vessels, further facilitating the progression of paravascular cysts (Kamal‐Salah et al. ).…”

“…; Kamal‐Salah et al. ). Less is known about the distribution patterns of different types of PVAs, and the correlation between PVAs and the retinoschisis at vascular arcades.…”
