The posterior pole and papillomacular fold in posterior microphthalmos by Nowilaty, Sawsan R.

“…Conclusions The PMF in PM eyes has characteristic morphologic SD-OCT features. The increased posterior pole curvature in PM and its significant correlation with the axial length, the PMF severity and keratometry established in this study suggest that PM eyes are not only shorter than normal, but seem to be abnormally shaped posteriorly, particularly along the vertical meridian. …”
