Influence of Controlled Viewing Conditions on Emmetropization to Imposed Myopic Defocus in the Chick

open access: yes, 2000
What cues are used in active emmetropization to analyse retinal image defocus remain unresolved. We asked two related questions: How important is sharp vision for compensation for myopic defocus? How fixed is the end-point of emmetropization?

Graded Competing Regional Myopic and Hyperopic Defocus Produce Summated Emmetropization Set Points in Chick

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2011
Purpose. Chicks emmetropize accurately to experimentally induced myopic and hyperopic defocus. The authors investigated the emmetropization response when a specific proportion of the retina was exposed to myopic defocus while the remainder was exposed to

Effectiveness of Hyperopic Defocus, Minimal Defocus, or Myopic Defocus in Competition with a Myopiagenic Stimulus in Tree Shrew Eyes [PDF]

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2006
To examine the ability of hyperopic defocus, minimal defocus, and myopic defocus to compete against a myopiagenic -5-D lens in juvenile tree shrew eyes.Juvenile tree shrews (n > or = 5 per group), on a 14-hour lights-on/10-hour lights-off schedule, wore a monocular -5-D lens (a myopiagenic stimulus) over the right eye in their home cages for more than ...

Short-Term Axial Length Changes in Myopic Eyes Induced by Defocus Spectacles for Myopia Control

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
Background. This study tested short-term axial length changes with Lenstar using a simple peripheral plus-add spectacle design. Methods. The subjects for this study were current users of monofocal glasses or contact lenses, aged 18–25 years, with myopic ...

Peripheral Defocus and Myopia Progression in Myopic Children Randomly Assigned to Wear Single Vision and Progressive Addition Lenses

open access: yesInvestigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 2013
Purpose: To determine the effect of progressive addition lenses (PALs) and single vision lenses (SVLs) on peripheral defocus in myopic children, and to compare the effect of myopic versus hyperopic peripheral defocus on foveal myopia progression ...

Temporal properties of the myopic response to defocus in the guinea pig

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 2013
Abstract Purpose Hyperopic defocus induces myopia in all species tested and is believed to underlie the progression of human myopia. We determined the temporal properties of the effects of hyperopic defocus in a mammalian eye. Methods

Peripheral myopic defocus signal affects the efficiency of visual information processing in myopic children

Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics
Abstract Purpose Spectacle lenses with peripheral lenslets have shown promise for myopia control by providing peripheral myopic defocus signals. Here, we aimed to investigate the impact of prolonged exposure (>6 months) to peripheral myopic defocus on visual information processing in myopic ...

Myopic defocus in the evening is more effective at inhibiting eye growth than defocus in the morning: Effects on rhythms in axial length and choroid thickness in chicks [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Eye Research, 2017
Animal models have shown that myopic defocus is a potent inhibitor of ocular growth: brief (1-2 h) daily periods of defocus are sufficient to counter the effects of much longer periods of hyperopic defocus, or emmetropic vision. While the variables of duration and frequency have been well-documented with regard to effect, we ask whether the efficacy of
