MyopiaRefractive
Myopia7
  • The opposite of myopia in English is hyperopia, or far-sightedness. (wikipedia.org)
  • Instead of a simple one-gene locus controlling the onset of myopia, a complex interaction of many mutated proteins acting in concert may be the cause. (wikipedia.org)
  • Instead of myopia being caused by a defect in a structural protein, defects in the control of these structural proteins might be the actual cause of myopia. (wikipedia.org)
  • Aberrant genetic recombination and gene splicing in the OPNLW1 and OPNMW1 genes that code for two retinal cone photopigment proteins can produce high myopia by interfering with refractive development of the eye. (wikipedia.org)
  • Describe a new FDA approved 1 day contact lens for the early intervention and management of axial myopia. (reviewofmm.com)
  • MiSight 1 day addresses myopia progression by correcting axial myopia and its uncorrected contribution to the elongation of the eye. (reviewofmm.com)
  • There are two types of myopia: refractive and axial. (reviewofmm.com)
Refractive1
  • In normal eye growth referred to as emmetropization, the cornea and crystalline lens has the correct curvature and thickness to produce the correct refractive power to focus light on the retina of an eye of normal axial length without accommodation-any mismatch results in refractive error.
