Abstract
Three-dimensional magnetic resonance imaging (3D MRI) of the eye is a powerful tool to visualize the entire shape of the eye. Using 3D MRI, posterior staphylomas can be observed in its full extent and how the entire eye shape changes in parallel. It has also been shown that some specific eye shape is related to poor visual outcome.
