AIM:To retrospectively evaluate central foveal thickness in highly myopic eyes with best correct visual acuity(BCVA)METHODS: In this retrospective clinical study, we consecutively recruited 70 low highly myopic cataract subjects(70 eyes)underwent Phaco. Postoperative visits were performed at 1wk, 1 and 3mo. Postoperative BCVA were recorded and further divided into 2 groups with BCVARESULTS: The ratio of BCVAPr=-0.716, PCONCLUSION: In this study, BCVA is improved after 3mo follow up. There has significant correlation between postoperative BCVA and central foveal thickness.
