Accommodative training to reduce nearwork-induced transient myopia.
PURPOSE To assess changes in the nearwork-induced transient myopia parameters of initial magnitude and its decay duration, as well as accuracy of the near accommodative steady-state response and clinically based accommodative facility, after 6 weeks of home-based accommodative training in asymptomatic myopes. METHODS Ten young adult, progressing myopes participated in the study. The experimen...

PURPOSE To compare the magnitude and time course of nearwork-induced transient myopia (NITM) in preadolescent Hong Kong Chinese myopes and emmetropes. METHOD Forty-five Hong Kong Chinese children, 35 myopes and 10 emmetropes aged 6 to 12 years (median, 7.5), monocularly viewed a letter target through a Badal lens for 5 minutes at either 5.00- or 2.50-D accommodative demand, followed by 3 minu...
متن کاملThe Progression of Nearwork Myopia
The purpose of this letter is to present a simplified mathematical model of progressive myopia. A proposed hypothesis for refractive error development of the human eye requires that there is an optical signal related to the amount of refractive error which would in turn correct the refractive error of the eye. A specific first-order feedback system, defined by the transfer function F (s) = 1 / ...
