Outline of Final Research Achievements

We analyzed the shape of the ocular globe as well as the sclera in a combinatory system using 3D MRI and swept-source optical coherence tomography. The results showed that the shape of the globe was classified into 4 distinct patterns. The irregularities of the posterior fundus may precede the altered shape of the entire globe.
