Abstract :
TITLE:–Study of incidence of lattice degeneration in patients with myopia. PURPOSE:–To determine the incidence of lattice degeneration in patients with myopia.To study findings associated with lattice degeneration. Early detection of retinal detachment.To prevent the occurrence of retinal detachment by giving prophylaxis.METHOD:– The study was done in 500 myopic patient at the DEPT OF OPHTHALMOLOGY, P.D.U. GOVT. MEDICAL COLLEGE, RAJKOT.All the patients were subjected to following tests:– best corrected visual acuityby snellen’schart,Slit lamp examination,Schiotztonometery,A–scan,Bscan,Direct ophthalmoscopy, indirect ophthalmoscopy.RESULTS:40 patients out of 500 patients studied showed the evidence of lattice retinal degeneration.31 cases out of 40 patients showed unilateral lattice degeneration. In remaining 9cases the lattice was bilateralThe lattice retinal degeneration was found in 17 patients in 370 Low myopes(myopia < 6D) and 23 patients in 130High myopes (myopia > 6D).CONCLUSION:Incidence of lattice degeneration was 8% in patients of myopia.Unilateral lattice degeneration is more common than bilateral
