Light Inhibits Lens-Induced Myopia through an Intensity-Dependent Dopaminergic Mechanism

Light Inhibits Lens-Induced Myopia through an Intensity-Dependent Dopaminergic Mechanism

Purpose: Bright light exposure has been postulated to underlie the ability of time spent outdoors to prevent the development of myopia in humans. In support of this, bright light inhibits the development of form-deprivation myopia (FDM) in all species studied. While lens-induced myopia (LIM) is also...
