Abstract Objective: To explore the current research status and frontier hotspots in pathological myopia (PM) based on the bibliometric software CiteSpace and VOSviewer. Methods: Bibliometric analysis methods. The Web of Science core database was searched in March 2023 for relevant literature on PM published between 2013 and 2022, including author, institution, country/region, journal, and keywords. Results:After reviewing the literature, 713 papers were fnally included. The number of publications in the feld of PM showed a steady upward trend in the last 10 years. The distribution of journals revealed that Retina-the Journal of Retinal and Vitreous Diseases in JCR I had the highest number of publications. Professor Ohno-matsui K from Tokyo, Japan, had the highest number of publications and citations, according to the author distribution. The distribution of research institutions revealed that Tokyo University of Medicine and Dentistry had the highest number of publications, followed by Fudan University and Sun Yat-sen University. However, China had more publications in this feld, with 7 out of the top 10 institutions. The countries/regions analysis revealed that China (278), Japan (124) and the United States (98) were the most active in the feld of PM, but China's centrality was very low. The keyword clusters mainly focused on epidemiological studies of PM, diagnosis, management, and complications of choroidal neovascularization. The keyword bursts analysis indicated that the classifcation of PM and myopia-related macular degeneration were new research hotspots. Conclusions: In the study of PM from 2013 to 2022, most publications came from China and Japan. There were quite a few publishing institutions in China, but there were fewer connections between institutions. The classifcation of PM and the diagnosis and management of myopia-associated macular degeneration have recently emerged as leading research areas in this feld.
