Myopia, or nearsightedness, develops through a molecular pathway distinct from the pathway that leads to hyperopia, or farsightedness. Resolving the molecular blur behind blurred vision, say ...

Myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness) develop through different molecular pathways, according to a new study. The finding provides a new understanding of myopia, the most common ...

Myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness) develop through different molecular pathways, according to a new study publishing October 9 in the open-access journal PLOS Biology by ...

Nearsightedness (myopia) and Farsightedness (hyperopia or presbyopia) are well-known refractive errors or refractive eye diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are ...

The onset of myopia after the age of 6 has been observed to be associated with a greatly increased rate of myopic shift after several years of relatively stable refraction or slowly declining ...

Per the results presented in this study, patients tend to prefer residual hyperopia to myopia. Although this is a very large, well-powered, study, the results are surprising.

Axial length/corneal radius (AXL/CR) ratio significantly predicted cycloplegic refractive error, and each 1.00 D decrease in hyperopia was associated with a 0.97 mm elongation in posterior ...

As described in his biographical summary, Dr. Mutti has extensive experience researching and developing personal monitoring technology to determine the effect of light exposure on myopia progression, ...

A multiple logistic model found that the risks of students developing myopia, hyperopia, and anisometropia were 1.88 (95% CI, 1.62-2.18), 0.53 (95% CI, 0.43-0.65), 1.07 (95% CI, 0.94-1.21), and 1 ...
