A schematic presentation of the suggested pathogenesis of the axial elongation and DPE position change. (A,D) The three dimensional eyeball appearance at baseline. (B,C) Symmetrical elongation primarily at the retro-equatorial region results in a tube-like enlargement of the globe, resulting the DPE location near the fovea. (E) Asymmetric growth in the retro-equatorial region of the globe results in a winding tube-like enlargement. (F) In this process, the DPE position is migrated towards the inferior hemisphere.
