![]() Key Words: lattice degeneration, myopiaīesides the direct economic and social burden of myopia, associated ocular complications may lead to substantial visual loss. Lattice was found to be more common in superotemporal quadrant and was slightly more prevalent among females. ![]() ![]() Lattice associated with WWOP was found to be more prevalent than lattice associated with holes and other peripheral lesions. CONCLUSION: Lattice degeneration was more prevalent in refractive error >6D.Age group of 20- 40 years showed more prevalence for lattice degeneration. Lattice degeneration was uniocular in 53% and binocular in 47.5%. 56% of lattice was prevalent in superotemporal quadrant and 35.2% was prevalent in inferotemporal quadrant. 131 eyes of 68 males showed a prevalence of 10% and 169 eyes of 87 females showed 12.4%. Isolated Lattice degeneration was prevalent in 50%. Lattice degeneration associated with holes showed a prevalence of 12% and those with white without pressure (WWOP) showed prevalence of 38.2%. Patients with myopia 6D) and low myopic (40 years was 11.42%. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study was done in 300 eyes of 154 patients with myopia more than 1 dioptre. ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To find the prevalence of lattice degeneration in the various degrees of myopia and to assess its relation with respect to gender, age, location on retina and the presence of other peripheral Retinal lesions.
