Summary: This study investigated the influence of prolonged periods of near work on accommodative response, accommodative microfluctuations (AMFs), and pupil diameter in juvenile myopic and emmetropic individuals. The study found that myopic individuals exhibited an unstable tendency in their accommodation system during prolonged near work at a certain time point. Accommodative microfluctuations may serve as a sensitive and objective indicator of fatigue in juvenile myopes under sustained near work.

Summary: The main aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of accommodations on the musculoskeletal system in myopic and emmetropic subjects, as well as the effect of unilateral accommodative palsy. The study will use surface electromyography to measure muscle activity and cycloftyal eye drops to paralyze accommodation. The findings may provide insight into the effects of accommodation on the musculoskeletal system and its connections.

Summary: This study establishes a model for near work myopia induced by short viewing distance in guinea pigs and evaluates the effect of viewing distance on myopia development. The findings suggest that short viewing distance could be a risk factor for myopia and provide a useful model for studying the underlying mechanisms.

Summary: This study demonstrated that correcting low to moderate levels of hyperopia has a positive impact on accommodative performance during sustained near activities in some schoolchildren. Refractive correction significantly improved accuracy of accommodative responses and reading speed in both tasks.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of autostereoscopic visual training on dynamic accommodative response, accommodative amplitude, and accommodative facility in myopic patients. The results showed that autostereoscopic visual training led to a decrease in accommodative lag and an increase in accommodative facility, but the long-term effects still require further exploration.

Summary: NSAVA was found to be a common cause of vision problems in children attending a paediatric ophthalmology clinic. Children who self-reported reading problems were more likely to have accommodative infacility.

Summary: This study investigates the trend of ultra-Orthodox women enrolling in higher education institutions, particularly focusing on their reasons for pursuing a degree in physical education and their experiences during the process. The findings reveal that economic considerations play a significant role in their motivations, with a passion for sports driving their choice of degree. Despite facing challenges such as heavy academic workload and knowledge gaps, these women plan to utilize their studies to enhance their earning capacity.

Summary: This study examined environmental and social risk factors for myopia in children and adolescents in Germany. The findings showed that less frequent outdoor activity and longer near work sessions were significantly associated with myopia. Additionally, children with a lower socioeconomic status were more likely to engage in longer periods of outdoor and near work activities.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between refractive error, habitual accommodative tone (HAT) and the incidence and progression of myopia in Tibetan children. The results showed that baseline spherical equivalent (SE) was significantly associated with the occurrence of myopia and its progression. Additionally, lower baseline HAT was found to be potentially associated with myopic development in hyperopic children.

Summary: Myopia is a global public health problem that affects people's quality of life and work productivity. This study conducted a meta-analysis to investigate the effects of near work on myopia, including adults' occupational exposure. The results showed that near work conditions, including occupational exposure, were associated with myopia.

Summary: The study revealed that the prevalence of myopia was 3%, 15%, and 27% among 7-, 11-, and 15-year-olds, respectively. Risk factors for myopia included increased time spent on near work and decreased time spent outdoors. Outdoor activities were found to have a protective effect against myopia, especially for younger children.

Summary: The study aims to determine whether the image resolution of the observed display type affects accommodative microfluctuations (AMFs), and examines the effect of refractive error. The results showed that higher resolution displays lead to reduced average accommodative response and increased low frequency components (LFC) power. In addition, myopes exhibited higher LFC and mean accommodative response across the different displays.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of virtual reality training on various parameters of vision. The results showed that VR training can improve the accommodative range and accommodative facility of human eyes, but has no significant impact on spherical equivalent and visual fatigue.

Summary: This study conducted a long-term follow-up on children with NF1-associated OPGs and found that most patients maintained good vision and anatomical outcomes over time. Initial visual acuity and optic nerve head appearance were found to predict long-term outcomes.
