Genome-wide analysis points to roles for extracellular matrix remodeling, the visual cycle, and neuronal development in myopia [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 Myopia, or nearsightedness, is the most common eye disorder, resulting primarily from excess elongation of the eye. The etiology of myopia, although known to be complex, is poorly understood. Here we report the largest ever genome-wide association study (43,360 participants) on myopia in Europeans.

The Advantage of Foraging Myopically [PDF]
J. Stat. Mech. 073501 (2018), 2018 We study the dynamics of a \emph{myopic} forager that randomly wanders on a lattice in which each site contains one unit of food. Upon encountering a food-containing site, the forager eats all the food at this site with probability $p<1$; otherwise, the food is left undisturbed.

Effects of Corneal Stromal Lens Collagen Cross-Linking Regraft on Corneal Biomechanics
Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022 Background. Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) therapy, a method that uses a combination of riboflavin and ultraviolet-A light (UVA), can promote the formation of covalent cross-linking of amino acid residues of corneal collagen and enhance the ...

Comparison of corneal and lens density measurements obtained by Pentacam and CASIA2 in myopes
BMC Ophthalmology, 2023 Purpose To investigate the agreement between Pentacam and CASIA2 in the evaluation of corneal densities (CDs) and lens densities (LDs) in myopes. Methods Fifty-three patients (106 eyes) underwent comprehensive ophthalmologic examinations.

BMJ, 2002 Editor—In his article on myopia Fredrick said that most research into myopia has been limited by its retrospective nature and lack of control group and follow up.1-1 We conducted a prospective, controlled, three year follow up study of myopia and showed direct evidence of myopic shift in students reading and doing intensive near work compared with ...
