The burden of uncorrected refractive error
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2019 Uncorrected refractive errors [defined as a presenting visual acuity of less than 6/12 in the better eye with an improvement of at least 0.2 logMAR (equivalent to two lines) after refraction][1] are the leading cause for moderate to severe vision ...

Contrast sensitivity before and after refractive error correction among refractive error patients in Hawassa, Sidama, Ethiopia 2023 [PDF]
BMC OphthalmologyBackground Contrast sensitivity is an important measure of vision quality. Risk of falling injury is strongly associated with poor contrast sensitivity compared with poor near- and distance visual acuity.

Refractive error maps: A predictive tool for refractive error progression. [PDF]
Ophthalmic Physiol OptAbstractPurposeTo investigate the influence of axial length on different ocular parameters and create a predictive tool for refractive error progression.MethodsTwo eye models were used to simulate refractive errors, namely the Liou–Brennan and the Goncharov–Dainty. Both models were simulated using Zemax OpticStudio.
