Emmetropization and nonmyopic eye growth

J Rozema, S Dankert, R Iribarren - Survey of Ophthalmology, 2023 - Elsevier
Most eyes start with a hypermetropic refractive error at birth, but the growth rates of the
ocular components, guided by visual cues, will slow in such a way that this refractive error …
