Origins of Refractive Errors: Environmental and Genetic Factors. [PDF]
, 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.

Towards Automating Retinoscopy for Refractive Error Diagnosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Refractive error is the most common eye disorder and is the key cause behind correctable visual impairment, responsible for nearly 80% of the visual impairment in the US. Refractive error can be diagnosed using multiple methods, including subjective refraction, retinoscopy, and autorefractors.

Inheritance of Refractive Error in Millennials [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2020 AbstractOver the last decades, the prevalence of myopia has suddenly increased, and at this rate, half of the world’s population will be myopic by the year 2050. Contemporary behavioural and lifestyle circumstances, along with emergent technology, are thought to be responsible for this increase.
