Tag: Myopia (Nearsightedness)

Uncorrected distance visual acuity of 20/20 or better was achieved in 92 percent of LASIK group, 74 percent in SMILE group

Trial data show eyeglass lenses slow myopia progression versus single vision control lenses

Axial length longest in lowest versus highest quartile of ω-3 PUFA intake; corresponding trend seen in cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction

Addition of 0.01 percent atropine did not increase the efficacy of DSDO spectacle lenses

Children with faster myopia progression have higher axial length, lower spherical equivalent, higher horizontal and vertical relative peripheral refraction

Intraocular lens tilt and rotation were smaller in the CTR group than the control group

Wearing spectacles with highly aspherical lenslets versus single-vision spectacle lenses reduces myopia progression and axial elongation over five years

Each daily one-hour increment of digital screen time associated with 21 percent higher odds of myopia

No evidence seen for loss of treatment effect with discontinuation of multifocal contacts in older teenagers with myopia

Higher proportion of myopia exhibited in those living in East Asia or urban area and in females, adolescents, and high school students
