Choroidal thinning in myopia is associated with axial elongation and severity of myopic maculopathy [PDF]

Scientific Reports
High myopia can lead to pathologic myopia and visual impairment, whereas its causes are unclear. We retrospectively researched high myopia cases from patient records to investigate the association between axial elongation and myopic maculopathy.

Brachyury co-operates with polycomb protein RYBP to regulate gastrulation and axial elongation in vitro [PDF]

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Early embryonic development is a complex process where undifferentiated cells lose their pluripotency and start to gastrulate. During gastrulation, three germ layers form, giving rise to different cell lineages and organs.

Timing of height growth peaks and axial elongation in atropine-treated myopic children [PDF]

BMC Ophthalmology
Purpose To investigate the association between systemic height growth rate and ocular axial elongation rate in atropine-treated children with myopia, and to explore whether the timing of height growth provides clinically relevant information regarding ...

Prediction of axial elongation in adults with high myopia: the Wenzhou High Myopia Cohort Study [PDF]

Eye and Vision
Background Identifying individuals at high risk of axial elongation is crucial for managing adults with high myopia, as further elongation substantially increases the risk of vision-threatening complications.

Longitudinal changes in macular curvature and axial elongation in school children [PDF]

International Journal of Retina and Vitreous
Background To investigate the relationship between changes in macular curvature and axial elongation in school children. Methods This prospective cohort study involved 75 right eyes of elementary school students for six years (from 8 to 9 to 14–15 years).

Amphiregulin Antibody and Reduction of Axial Elongation in Experimental Myopia

EBioMedicine, 2017
To examine the mechanism of ocular axial elongation in myopia, guinea pigs (age: 2–3 weeks) which either underwent unilateral or bilateral lens-induced myopization (group 1) or which were primarily myopic at baseline (group 2) received unilateral ...

Prospective, Randomized Comparison of Axial Elongation Following LASIK versus Soft Contact Lens Wear in the Contralateral Eye [PDF]

Ophthalmology Science
Purpose: To evaluate whether LASIK induces axial elongation comparable to or less than that observed with continued soft contact lens (SCL) wear in myopic eyes. Design: A prospective, randomized-controlled within-person clinical trial.

Corneal higher-order aberrations as key predictive indicators of axial elongation in myopic children with orthokeratology: a single-center prospective cohort study [PDF]

Scientific Reports
This prospective study aimed to investigate changes in corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in myopic children using orthokeratology (ortho-k) lenses and their relationship with myopia progression.

Association between axial elongation and corneal power distribution changes induced by aspheric orthokeratology lenses [PDF]

Eye and Vision
Purpose This study investigated how aspheric lens design changes the corneal power distribution and how such changes are associated with the axial elongation in myopic children who underwent orthokeratology.
