Association of high myopia with peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer in patients with hypertension.
<h4>Purpose</h4>To identify the impacts of hypertension (HTN), high myopia, and the combination thereof on peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness.<h4>Methods</h4>All subjects were divided into four groups: control (group 1); patients with HTN without high m...
