The pathophysiology of refractive errors is poorly understood. Myopia (nearsightedness) in particular both blurs vision and predisposes the eye to many blinding diseases during adulthood. Based on past findings diurnal variations dimensions eyes humans other vertebrates, altered rhythms these ocular with experimentally induced myopia, evolving evidence that ambient light exposures influence development, we assessed whether disturbances circadian signals might alter development eye. In mice,...
