Refractive errors and schizophrenia
Schizophrenia Research, 2009 Refractive errors (myopia, hyperopia and amblyopia), like schizophrenia, have a strong genetic cause, and dopamine has been proposed as a potential mediator in their pathophysiology. The present study explored the association between refractive errors in adolescence and schizophrenia, and the potential familiality of this association.The Israeli Draft ...

Origins of Refractive Errors: Environmental and Genetic Factors [PDF]
Annual Review of Vision Science, 2019 Refractive errors are the product of a mismatch between the axial length of the eye and its optical power, creating blurred vision. Uncorrected refractive errors are the second leading cause of worldwide blindness.

ABSTRACT.Purpose: To study the association between refractive error, glaucoma damage and IOP in a large population.Methods: We examined 32,918 citizens of the city of Malmö, Sweden, 57–79 years of age, searching for individuals with undetected glaucoma. Refraction was measured with autorefractors.

Management of refractive errors
BMJ, 2010Uncorrected refractive error accounts for half of the global burden of avoidable vision impairment and nearly a third of the global burden of avoidable blindness.1 2 Globally, 153 million people have visual impairment or are blind due to uncorrected refractive error and the majority live in low income countries.1 Additionally, 410 million people have ...

Refraction and refractive errors in an elderly population
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 1988The data for this paper were collected during a two‐year study of the elderly in the market town of Melton Mowbray. The randomly selected subjects, aged 76 years of age and older, were found to be on average + 1.33 D hypermetropic and the average cylinder power was 0.82 D.

Optical correction of refractive errors in infants and young children is indicated when the refractive errors are sufficiently large to cause unilateral or bilateral amblyopia, if they are impairing the child's ability to function normally, or if the child has accommodative strabismus.

MECHANISMS OF ACCOMMODATION AND REFRACTIVE ERROR*
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 1983Abstract The classical or Helmholtz theory of accommodation has formed the basis of optometric practice for many years. This theory maintains that the ciliary muscle receives only parasympathetic innervation and that the position of rest in the emmetropic eye lies at optical infinity.
