ABSTRACT SIGNIFICANCE Exposure to long-wavelength light has been proposed as a potential intervention slow myopia progression in children. This article provides an evidence-based review of the safety and control efficacy red discusses mechanisms by which may work childhood progression. The spectral composition ambient visual environment powerful effects on eye growth refractive development. Studies mammalian primate animal models (macaque monkeys tree shrews) have shown that daily exposure...
Importance Uncorrected refractive error is the most common cause of vision impairment in children. Most children 12 years or older can achieve visual acuity (VA) 20/25 better by self-refraction using adjustable-focus spectacles, but data on younger are lacking. Objective To assess accuracy, corrected VA, and factors associated with not achieving VA among aged 5 to 11 performing Adspecs spectacles (Adaptive Eyecare), compared noncycloplegic autorefraction cycloplegic refraction. Design,...
Importance Increased myopic shift was found to be associated with 1 year of overminus spectacle treatment for children intermittent exotropia (IXT). Persistence after discontinuing spectacles is unknown. Objective To compare refractive error change over 3 years in IXT originally treated vs nonoverminus spectacles. Design, Setting, and Participants This study an 18-month extension the Trial Overminus Spectacle Therapy Intermittent Exotropia cohort, which previously randomized aged 10 baseline...
