The website mentions that even in high myopia above -6D one can have as little as 1mm axial elongation and most of the myopia could be near-induced transient myopia; however, Dr Carr argues that even 1mm change can be quite significant considering the very thin delicate retinal tissue.

Dr Carr also states that the axial reduction that naturally happens over age is likely due to shallowing of the cornea. Quoting another statement, she adds that "there is no debate for environmental influences on vision among myopia scientists, optometrists, or ophthalmologists. We all accept this as fact." and also agrees that "Yes, the eye absolutely can respond to blur in both directions and regulate its growth".

Further she adds that she aligns completely with the ideology that environment stimuli are as much relevant to myopia progression and development as is genetics if not more important. However, she also says that the maximum response to these stimuli is during childhood.
