The results of many studies in a variety of species have significantly advanced our
understanding of the role of visual experience and the mechanisms of postnatal eye growth …

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 …

Purpose Most studies have reported only minimal reductions in myopia progression with
bifocal or progressive multifocal spectacles, although somewhat larger, although mostly still …

The prevalence of myopia in developed countries in East and Southeast Asia has increased
to more than 80% in children completing schooling, whereas that of high myopia has …

The current study aimed to examine the short-term choroidal response to optical defocus in
schoolchildren. Myopic schoolchildren aged 8–16 were randomly allocated to control group …

Choroid has been claimed to be of importance during ocular development. However, how
the choroid responds spatially to different visual cues has not been fully understood. The …

Atropine eye drops and myopic retinal defocus each slow progression of myopia (short-
sight). They also cause thickening of the choroid, and it has been suggested that the …

During postnatal refractive development, an emmetropization mechanism uses refractive
error to modulate the growth rate of the eye. Hyperopia (image focused behind the retina) …

Purpose: To determine whether changes in wavefront spherical curvature (optical vergence)
are a directional cue for accommodation. Methods: Nine subjects participated in this …

This study used isotope-coded protein label (ICPL) quantitative proteomics and
bioinformatics analysis to examine changes in vitreous protein content and associated …
