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

Myopia and associated pathological complications [PDF]
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 2005 AbstractBesides the direct economic and social burden of myopia, associated ocular complications may lead to substantial visual loss. In several population and clinic‐based cohorts, case–control and cross‐sectional studies, higher risks of posterior subcapsular cataract, cortical and nuclear cataract in myopic patients were reported. Patients with high

Comparison of form-deprived myopia and lens-induced myopia in guinea pigs [PDF]
, 2014 AIM: To study the efficacy difference between form-deprived myopia (FDM) and lens-induced myopia (LIM), the degree of myopia, axial length and pathological changes of the posterior sclera from guinea pigs were evaluated.METHODS: Four-week pigmented ...

Peripapillary Detachment in Pathologic Myopia [PDF]
Archives of Ophthalmology, 2003 To describe peripapillary detachment in pathologic myopia (PDPM), a newly recognized fundus lesion.Retrospective medical record review.We evaluated a series of myopic eyes that had a yellow-orange elevation of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium at the inferior border of the myopic conus.Twenty eyes of 15 patients were identified during a 17-year

Genome-wide analysis points to roles for extracellular matrix remodeling, the visual cycle, and neuronal development in myopia [PDF]
, 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 (

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 ...

Advances of optical coherence tomography in myopia and pathologic myopia [PDF]
Eye, 2016 The natural course of high-axial myopia is variable and the development of pathologic myopia is not fully understood. Advancements in optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology have revealed peculiar intraocular structures in highly myopic eyes and unprecedented pathologies that cause visual impairment. New OCT findings include posterior precortical
