Current Concepts in Myopia Control [PDF]
Collegium antropologicum, 2013 Current animal and human models of myopia progression show that beside genetics, there are several environmental factors that contribute to the axial elongation process, the underlying cause for progressive myopia. During last years, extensive research in this field revealed some apparently independent mechanisms, which play an important role in ...

Update in myopia and treatment strategy of atropine use in myopia control [PDF]
Eye, 2018 AbstractThe prevalence of myopia is increasing globally. Complications of myopia are associated with huge economic and social costs. It is believed that high myopia in adulthood can be traced back to school age onset myopia. Therefore, it is crucial and urgent to implement effective measures of myopia control, which may include preventing myopia onset ...
