Myopia prevalence in Finland doubled from 1930s to 1950s birth cohorts and is linked to educational attainment

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the prevalence of myopia and factors associated with the increase of myopia prevalence in Finland between two generations and discuss the reasons why myopia has not increased similarly as in many Asian countries. Methods A questionnaire assessing factors potentially related to myopia was sent

3.THE COMPARISON BETWEEN THE EFFECT OF TWO HOURS ATROPINIZATION VERSUS THREE DAYS ATROPINIZATION ON THE CYCLOPLEGIC OUTCOME IN CHILDREN

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019
Background: Cycloplegia abolishes the accommodative power by causing paralysis of ciliary muscle by anticholinergic drugs, which will inhibit stimulation of both ciliary muscle and sphincter pupillae causing cycloplegia and mydriasis.

Artificial intelligence prediction algorithms for refractive error onset and progression in children and adolescents: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluates the performance of artificial intelligence (AI)‐based models for predicting the onset and progression of refractive error (RE) in children and adolescents and quantitatively synthesizes their prediction accuracy.

Refractive Accuracy and Visual Outcome by Self-Refraction Using Adjustable-Focus Spectacles in Young Children: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

JAMA ophthalmology, 2023
Importance Uncorrected refractive error is the most common cause of vision impairment in children. Most children 12 years or older can achieve visual acuity (VA) of 20/25 or better by self-refraction using adjustable-focus spectacles, but data on younger

Prevalence and Pattern of Refractive Errors Among Yanomami Indigenous People in the Brazilian Amazon: A Cross‐Sectional Observational Study

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Refractive errors are the leading cause of preventable visual impairment worldwide, yet data from isolated Indigenous populations remain virtually absent from the global literature. The Yanomami, one of the largest Indigenous peoples in the Americas with recent and limited contact with non‐Indigenous society, have no prior ...

Selumetinib as a Target Therapy in Progressive Paediatric Low‐Grade Gliomas—Case Series (pLGG)

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Optic pathway gliomas (OPGs) occur in 15%–20% of children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). While smaller gliomas may be only monitored, the current standard of care for symptomatic ones relies on chemotherapy, most commonly carboplatin and vincristine.

Method comparison and overview of refractive measurements in children: implications for myopia management

BMJ Open Ophthalmology
Objective This study investigated the agreement between objective wavefront-based refraction and subjective refraction in myopic children. It also assessed the impact of cyclopentolate and refraction levels on the agreement.Methods A total of 84 eyes of ...

Comparison between cycloplegic and noncycloplegic refraction in young adult myopes

Optometry and Vision Science
SIGNIFICANCE This study explores the difference between cycloplegic and noncycloplegic refraction in young adult myopes. PURPOSE From the available literature, it is unclear whether cycloplegia is necessary when refracting young adults.
