This study will try to identify the gene or genes responsible for myopia (nearsightedness) and to examine the relationship between myopia and near work. Myopia is the most common eye disor...
Cambridge Anti-Myopia Trial: Accommodation Training and Aberration Control in Myopia Development
We have identified focussing problems related to myopia getting worse. Our trial uses optical and orthoptic interventions that correct the focussing problems to see if this retards myopia ...
Novel Myopia Genes and Pathways Identified From Syndromic Forms of Myopia.
To test the hypothesis that genes known to cause clinical syndromes featuring myopia also harbor polymorphisms contributing to nonsyndromic refractive errors.

Assessment of Clinical Trials for Devices Intended to Control Myopia Progression in Children.
The increased prevalence of myopia in the United States and other regions of the world, and the sight-threatening problems associated with higher levels of myopia have led to great interest in researc...
