Abstract
The authors studied the intraocular pressure, scleral rigidity and outflow facility of 137 anisometropic subjects with unilateral high myopia. The contralateral eyes were emmetropic, hyperopic or slightly myopic (less than 5 diopters). No difference was found between the intraocular pressure on the two sides. The scleral rigidity was lower and the outflow facility higher on the myopic side. It is concluded that high myopia is not, in itself, a cause of ocular hypertension, nor is caused by it.
