Light Inhibits Lens-Induced Myopia through an Intensity-Dependent Dopaminergic Mechanism. [PDF]
Purpose: Bright light exposure has been postulated to underlie the ability of time spent outdoors to prevent the development of myopia in humans. In support of this, bright light inhibits the development of form-deprivation myopia (FDM) in all species ...

Neutralizing Peripheral Refraction Eliminates Refractive Scotomata in Tilted Disc Syndrome. [PDF]
SIGNIFICANCE We demonstrate that the visual field defects in patients with tilted disc syndrome can be reduced or eliminated by neutralizing the peripheral scotoma in the area of posterior retinal bowing, which may allow differentiation between a congenital anomaly and acquired pathology.

Transcriptome‐based insights into gene networks controlling myopia prevention
Abstract Myopia (short‐sightedness), usually caused by excessive elongation of the eye during development, has reached epidemic proportions worldwide. In animal systems including the chicken model, several treatments have been shown to inhibit ocular elongation and experimental myopia.

Floppy iris syndrome with oral imipramine: A case series
Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (IFIS) has commonly been seen with long-term use of α1-adrenoceptor blocking agents. We observed IFIS in three patients during phacoemulsification due to oral imipramine therapy.
