With the growing prevalence of myopia, already at epidemic levels in some countries, there is an urgent need for new management approaches. However, with increasing number research publications on topic myopia control, also a clear necessity agreement and guidance key issues, including how should be defined interventions, validated by well-conducted clinical trials, appropriately ethically applied. The International Myopia Institute (IMI) reports critical review synthesis evidence to date,...

Myopia is a dynamic and rapidly moving field, with ongoing research providing better understanding of the etiology leading to novel myopia control strategies. In 2019, International Institute (IMI) assembled published series white papers across relevant topics updated evidence digest in 2021. Here, we summarize findings key from previous 2 years. Studies animal models have continued explore how wavelength intensity light influence eye growth examined new pharmacologic agents scleral...

SIGNIFICANCE The availability of a range effective myopia control modalities enables the clinician to exercise judgment when discussing treatment plan with patient and their parents. This article outlines important considerations beyond efficacy. Clinically meaningful may be attained some spectacle lenses, select soft contact concentrations atropine, overnight orthokeratology. Given that satisfactory efficacy can achieved modalities, other factors should considered deciding upon best...

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to document the distribution severity myopic maculopathy in a cohort highly patients and explore associated risk factors. Methods: A total 890 Chinese myopes aged between 7 70 years (median age 19 years) with spherical refraction −6.00 diopter (D) or worse both eyes were investigated. All participants underwent detailed ophthalmic examination. Myopic graded into 5 categories according International Photographic Classification Grading System using color...

The aim of our study was to evaluate whether obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with impaired acquisition and recall a pictorial-based memory tasks in children. 54 children OSA 17 controls matched for age, sex ethnicity underwent (overnight polysomnogram). Before the subjects completed 15-min pictorial task consisting four trials, followed by free-recall period assess retention after 10 min following morning upon awakening. Children had higher apnoea/hypopnoea index (6.3±1.5...

Purpose: Previous studies suggest that the adenosine receptor antagonist, 7-methylxanthine (7-MX), retards myopia progression. Our aim was to determine whether 7-MX alters compensating refractive changes produced by defocus in rhesus monkeys. Methods: Starting at age 3 weeks, monkeys were reared with −3 diopter (D; n = 10; −3D/pl) or +3D (n 6; +3D/pl) spectacles over their treated eyes and zero-powered lenses fellow eyes. In addition, they given 100 mg/kg of orally twice daily throughout...

Key points Vascular reactivity, the response of vessels to a vasoactive stimulus such as hypoxia and hyperoxia, can be used assess vascular range adjustment in which are able compensate for changes . Previous studies retina have not accurately quantified retinal responses precisely targeted multiple stimuli at same time controlling level carbon dioxide, thus precluding them from modelling relationship between blood flow oxygen. The present study modelled , showing combined linear hyperbolic...

SIGNIFICANCE This study demonstrates that mean axial length/corneal radius of curvature ratio (AL/CR) can be used to detect low and high myopia but cannot clinically monitor progression because the relationship between AL/CR in is different myopia. PURPOSE The purpose this was investigate with magnitude METHODS Retrospective analysis conducted comparing right eyes those (n = 308; age, 7 16 years; sphere, −6.00 diopters or worse) 732; −0.50 −3.50 diopters; cylinder, ≤1.00 diopters). Baseline...

Aim To prospectively determine the impact of choroidal thickness (CT) on myopic maculopathy progression. Methods This is a prospective, longitudinal, observational study. In total, 434 participants aged 7–70 years with bilateral high myopia (≤-6 D spherical error, range, −6 to −27.0 D) completed follow-up visits for 2 years. The baseline CT centred fovea was measured using swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT). Myopic progression determined by fundus photography. Logistic model...

AIM: To explore the usage of choroidal thickness measured by swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) to detect myopic macular degeneration (MMD) in high participants. METHODS: Participants with bilateral myopia (≤−6 diopters) were recruited from a subset Guangzhou Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center-Brien Holden Vision Institute High Myopia Cohort Study. SS-OCT was performed determine thickness, and maculopathy graded International Meta-Analysis for Pathologic (META-PM) Classi?cation....
