[Research progress on pathologic myopic macular atrophy].

Pathological myopia is one of the primary causes of irreversible visual loss in the population. Myopic maculopathy represents a key feature of pathological myopia, among which macular atrophy is the main contributor to severe visual impairment. The specific mechanism underlying the development of macular atrophy remains unclear. Studies have demonstrated that the formation and progression of choroidal neovascularization are closely linked to the onset of macular atrophy. To date, no effective therapeutic interventions have been identified to delay or reverse the progression of macular atrophy.
