Clinical and anatomical differences for heavy eye syndrome, highly myopic sagging eye syndrome, and sagging eye syndrome
The authors explored the mechanisms underlying the development of heavy eye syndrome (HES), highly myopic sagging eye syndrome (SES)-like, and SES with the aim to differentiate the three conditions clinically and anatomically to aid treatment decision-making.
