RESUMEN
Myopia and glaucoma are the leading causes of irreversible blindness in the world, and as the number of nearsighted people is predicted to increase sharply in the upcoming decades, an increase in combined pathology is expected. This article analyzes literature sources to assess the epidemiology of glaucoma and myopia both worldwide and in the Russian Federation, examine the anatomical changes of the eyeball associated with these diseases, and identify the diagnostic criteria that facilitate the verification of glaucoma when combined with myopia.
