Clinical Trials
Our project is a 24-month longitudinal randomized controlled trial that aims to investigate the myopia development after topical application of 0.01% atropine in children with either fast ...
The Use of Atropine 0.01% in the Prevention and Control of Myopia (ATOM3)
Study of low dose atropine in preventing the onset and progression of myopia in high risk children with pre-myopia or low-myopia.
Low-Dose Atropine for Treatment of Myopia
Study Objectives The objectives for this randomized trial are: 1. To determine the efficacy of daily low-dose atropine (0.01%) for slowing myopia progression over a two-year...
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 ...

Enhancement of refractive outcomes of small-incision lenticule extraction via tear-film control.
To suggest that tear film is a refractive outcome predictor in small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for myopia and describe methods of controlling the tear film and its effects on refractive ou...
Parental attitudes to myopia: a key agent of change for myopia control?
With the increasing prevalence in myopia there is growing interest in active myopia prevention. This study aims to increase our understanding of parental attitudes to myopia development and control, a...
The use of in-strip digestion for fast proteomic analysis on tear fluid from dry eye patients.
Tear is an accessible fluid for exploring biomarkers of dry eye disease. This study describes a fast proteomic method by LC-Q-orbitrap-MS analysis with in-strip digestion and investigates the tear pro...
Progress and Control of Myopia by Light Environments.
During the past 30 years, the prevalence rate of myopia has been increased dramatically. Myopia has become one of the leading causes of vision loss in some countries, whereas the mechanism of the main...
Possible increase of myopia prevalence among children in Sweden.
The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of myopia in a population of children in Sweden. Retrospective analysis of children in a region in Sweden referred to eye care from the nation...

Lacrimal Apparatus
The tear-forming and tear-conducting system which includes the lacrimal glands, eyelid margins, conjunctival sac, and the tear drainage system.
Myopia, Degenerative
Excessive axial myopia associated with complications (especially posterior staphyloma and CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION) that can lead to BLINDNESS.
