| dc.description | Myopia is a refractive defect that causes images to focus in front of the retina and not on it, making it difficult to see clearly at far distances. When the visual error exceeds 6-8 diopters we speak of high myopia, (also known as degenerative or pathological myopia) that affects about 2% of the population and increases the risk of developing potentially severe eye diseases. High myopia can occur along with other refractive problems, such as astigmatism. There are no methods to prevent this pathology, so it is important that people at risk undergo periodic check-ups that include an optical examination and a complete ophthalmological examination. For this reason, our objective as an optometrist has the duty to provide primary care to our patients in order to safeguard the care of one of their vital organs. An 11-year-old female patient attends the consultation due to the difficulty in night vision, with correction in use. The patient would have performed her last checkup 10 months ago. Her mother told us that at first she only suffered from high myopia, but when carrying out the corresponding tests she was detected a small astigmatism. | es_ES |

| dc.description.abstract | La miopía es un defecto refractivo que provoca que las imágenes se enfoquen por delante de la retina y no sobre ella, lo que dificultad la visión nítida en distancias lejanas. Cuando el error visual supera las 6-8 dioptrías hablamos de miopía magna, (también conocida como miopía degenerativa o patológica) que afecta a cerca de un 2% de la población y aumenta el riesgo de desarrollar enfermedades oculares potencialmente severos. La miopía magna puede presentarse junto a otros problemas refractivos, como el astigmatismo. No existe métodos para prevenir esta patología, por eso es importante que las personas de riesgos se realicen revisiones periódicas que incluyan un examen óptico y un examen oftalmológico completo. Por esta razón nuestro objetivo como optometrista tenemos el deber de brindar atención primaria a nuestros pacientes con el fin de precautelar el cuidado de unos de sus órganos vitales. Paciente femenino de 11 años, asiste a la consulta debido a la dificultad que presenta en la visión nocturna, contando con corrección en uso. La paciente habría realizado su ultimo chequeo hace 10 meses. Su madre nos manifestó que al principio solo padecía de alta miopía, pero al realizar los exámenes correspondientes se le detecto un pequeño astigmatismo. | es_ES |
