Manifestation of connective tissue dysplasia signs in 80 patients with myopia aged 4-18 years was studied. The tendency to increase of particular connective tissue signs (astenic constitution, arachnodactily, joints hypermobility) was noted as myopia degree growth (weak, average, high). For all this the quality of small anomalies of development and dysembryogenesis stigmata exceeded general population indices in more than 50% patients. In retina periphery examination it was detected that the presence and expressiveness of vitreochoreoretinal dystrophy was determined by stigmatization level and myopia degree. In particular in patients with high and average levels predominantly in myopia of average and high degree potentially dangerous kinds of such dystrophy were registered. General practitioners should take the data obtained into consideration in order to send the patients with connective tissue dysplasia to ophthalmologist consultation in time.
