Myopia control in Mendelian forms of myopia
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 2023 AbstractPurposeTo study the effectiveness of high‐dose atropine for reducing eye growth in Mendelian myopia in children and mice.MethodsWe studied the effect of high‐dose atropine in children with progressive myopia with and without a monogenetic cause. Children were matched for age and axial length (AL) in their first year of treatment.

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
