Pathologic Myopia

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if LED repeated low-level red light (RLRL) therapy works to treat pathologic myopia in adults. It will also learn about the safety of LED-RLRL. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does LED-RLRL modulate choroidal microcirculation to retard retinal atrophy in pathological myopia? What medical problems do participants have when receiving LED-RLRL therapy? Researchers will compare with a sham device (identical in appearance but delivering \<10% of the original device's energy output) to see if LED-RLRL works to treat pathologic myopia. Participants will: Take LED-RLRL or sham LED-RLRL twice daily, 3 minutes per session, 5 days per week, for a total duration of 12 months. Visit the clinic once every 3 months for checkups and tests. Keep a diary of their symptoms and their visual perception.

This observational study aims to establish key technologies for high-throughput, large-model-based AI-assisted diagnosis using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA). The study will collect real-world OCT/OCTA images and corresponding clinical information from patients with common blinding retinal and optic nerve diseases at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. A high-throughput diagnostic framework based on large-scale artificial intelligence models will be developed and evaluated. The primary objective is to determine the diagnostic performance of the AI system, including its ability to identify diabetic retinopathy, branch retinal vein occlusion, central retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopic choroidal neovascularization, and glaucoma-related optic nerve damage. The results of this study are expected to support the development of standardized, efficient, and scalable AI-assisted diagnostic pathways for OCT imaging in clinical practice.

In this non-interventional retrospective and prospective observational study, the long-term evolution of clinical and iconographic characteristics of patients with pathological myopia will be considered Changes of some specific clinical, tomographic and angiographic variables evaluated on the baseline and after a minimum of 5 years follow-up will be studied.
