myopia prevention and vision improvement articles

Excerpt below:


Fortunately, a larger NEI-funded study of bifocals is ongoing. The Correction of Myopia Evaluation Trial (COMET) is studying more than 400 children who have been randomized to two groups: those wearing progressive addition lenses with a +2.00D add and those wearing single-vision spectacles for at least three years. A preliminary study in Hong Kong found that the PALs not only cut the progression of myopia by half; they helped slow the growth in axial length.


This will be of interest to optometrists! Reserch is underway to control myopia and bifocals have been proven to slow down myopia progression! Otis stands correct preaching the merits of the plus lens as an aid to help control myopia. I wish I had been given bifocals, I would be much less myopic to this day!

Let's get straight to the point: Nearsightedness is caused by nearwork. "Nearwork" means any lengthy task performed at a range of 6 feet (2m) or less. You can avoid the worst effects of nearwork by doing it intelligently (i.e. adopting good visual habits), and by wearing "plus" lenses such as one finds in drug-store type reading glasses.(see link for full story)



- Correspondingly, negative lenses and overcorrection with negative lenses increase esophoria139. - According to the generally and scientifically agreed fact of emmetropization (section 3.3.5), accommodation (section 3.2), accommodation induced elevated IOP (section 3.6.2) and artificially negative lens induced myopia (section 3.3) the positive effect of adding of plus power for near work is convincing.

- As there were no negative results published for the use of simply adding some plus power for extensive near work, the recommendation should be: Try it!


1. Myopia Progression--Effect of Bifocal vs. Single Lenses
In a small preliminary study researchers have found that children who wore bifocal eyeglasses had a slightly slower progression of myopia, or nearsightedness, than children who wore traditional single-vision eyeglasses. These findings appear in the August 2000 issue of Optometry and Vision Science.
