Abstrakt: Prognostic value of acoustic density of sclera (ADS) is studied in development of peripheral vitreochorioretinal degenerations (PVCRD) in myopia. Children aged 8-10 years old with noncomplicated high and moderate myopia were divided into two groups after ADS measurement: 1 with ADS < or = 39dB - unfavorable prognosis, 2 with ADS >39dB - favorable prognosis. Follow-up during 10 years with examinations twice a year confirmed prognosis accuracy: in the 1st group PVCRD developed 2.5 times as often as in the 2nd group (64.6 and 25.6% respectively).
