Eye shape and retinal shape, and their relation to peripheral refraction [PDF]

, 2012
Purpose: We provide an account of the relationships between eye shape, retinal shape and peripheral refraction. Recent findings: We discuss how eye and retinal shapes may be described as conicoids, and we describe an axis and section reference system for

Global Prevalence of Myopia and High Myopia and Temporal Trends from 2000 through 2050 [PDF]

, 2016
PurposeMyopia is a common cause of vision loss, with uncorrected myopia the leading cause of distance vision impairment globally. Individual studies show variations in the prevalence of myopia and high myopia between regions and ethnic groups, and there ...

Human PrimPol mutation associated with high myopia has a DNA replication defect [PDF]

, 2014
PrimPol is a primase-polymerase found in humans, and other eukaryotes, involved in bypassing lesions encountered during DNA replication. PrimPol employs both translesion synthesis and repriming mechanisms to facilitate lesion bypass by the replisome ...

Development of refractive errors - what can we learn from inherited retinal dystrophies? [PDF]

, 2017
PURPOSE: It is unknown which retinal cells are involved in the retina-to-sclera signaling cascade causing myopia. As inherited retinal dystrophies (IRD) are characterized by dysfunction of a single retinal cell type and have a high risk of refractive ...

Refraction data survey: 2nd generation correlation of myopia [PDF]

, 2016
The objective herein is to provide refraction data, myopia progression rate, prevalence, and 1st and 2nd generation correlations, relevant to whether myopia is random or inherited. First- and second-generation ocular refraction data are assembled from N =

Prevalence of refractive error in Europe: the European Eye Epidemiology (E3) Consortium [PDF]

, 2015
To estimate the prevalence of refractive error in adults across Europe. Refractive data (mean spherical equivalent) collected between 1990 and 2013 from fifteen population-based cohort and cross-sectional studies of the European Eye Epidemiology (E3 ...
