Myopic traction maculopathy (MTM) is a sight-threatening condition often associated with pathological myopia. It can lead to foveoschisis, macular holes, and even retinal detachment if not identified in time. Early recognition is key to delaying or preventing these complications. The condition arises due to structural changes such as vitreoretinal traction, scleral thinning, and posterior staphyloma, making accurate imaging crucial. Understanding the right diagnostic approach can help guide timely intervention and preserve vision.
