Tree shrews do not maintain emmetropia in initially-focused narrow-band cyan light.

Mar 15, 2021

We asked if emmetropia, achieved in broadband colony lighting, is maintained in narrow-band cyan light that is well focused in the emmetropic eye, but does not allow for guidance from longitudinal chr...

Variants in FLRT3 and SLC35E2B identified using exome sequencing in seven high myopia families from Central Europe.

Mar 15, 2021

Association between greater residential greenness and decreased risk of preschool myopia and astigmatism.

Mar 11, 2021

Rapid urbanization has led to reduced greenness in many areas, this has been linked to adverse health outcomes. The aim was to determine the association between residential greenness experienced durin...

Emmetropic, But Not Myopic Human Eyes Distinguish Positive Defocus From Calculated Blur.

Mar 11, 2021

Defocus blur imposed by positive lenses can induce hyperopia, whereas blur imposed by diffusers induces deprivation myopia. It is unclear whether the retina can distinguish between both conditions whe...

Flow pattern and perforating vessels in three different phases of myopic choroidal neovascularization seen by swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography.

Mar 11, 2021

Bayesian Meta-Analysis of Myopia Control with Multifocal Lenses.

Mar 08, 2021

The aim of this study is to provide reliable guidelines for the mean percentage efficacy together with the 95% credibility interval in slowing down progression of myopia by a specific intervention ove...

RNA-seq and GSEA identifies suppression of ligand-gated chloride efflux channels as the major gene pathway contributing to form deprivation myopia.

Mar 08, 2021

Currently there is no consensus regarding the aetiology of the excessive ocular volume that characterizes high myopia. Thus, we aimed to test whether the gene pathways identified by gene set enrichmen...
