Abstract：
:To revise the peer-reviewed literature on geometric properties of the scleral-conjunctival structure in order to define their clinical relevance and the potential relationship between their changes and myopia development or progression. A bibliographic search focused on the study of the geometry of conjunctiva and/or sclera as well as those studies evaluating the relationship between geometric changes in the scleral-conjunctival structure and myopia was carried out. Several studies have been performed with different diagnostic technologies, including optical coherence tomography, profilometry and Scheimpflug imaging, to detect geometric changes of the scleral-conjunctival tissue in different physiological conditions of the eye, after use of contact lenses and in different ocular pathologies. Likewise, these technologies have been shown to be a valuable clinical tool to optimize scleral contact lens fitting. Future studies should investigate new potential clinical applications of such technologies, including the evaluation of anterior scleral changes related to myopia, as well as to define standardized clinical standard operating procedures for obtaining accurate and reproducible clinical measurement of the scleral-conjunctival morphology.
