[Research progress on the relationship between peripapillary hyper-reflective ovoid mass-like structure and optic nerve diseases].

Peripapillary hyper-reflective ovoid mass-like structure (PHOMS) is a newly discovered optical coherence tomography (OCT) sign of optic disc in recent years, which can be presented in a variety of optic nerve diseases. At present, the OCT structural characteristics and pathological manifestations of PHOMS have been initially understood. This paper summarizes the related literature published recently. The relationship and the latest research progress between PHOMS and some optic neuropathy were mainly focused, hoping to further deepen the understanding and facilitate its wider clinical application.
