This article isn't fully developed, there are many studies that could go on this page that aren't here at the moment.

Causes of Myopia

Lens induced myopia & axial length change in humans

Lens induced myopia & axial length change in animals

Nearwork-Induced Transient Myopia (NITM) & Nearwork Causing Permanent Myopia

Reversing Myopia

Outdoor time & distance vision

Using reduced or no lenses (myopic defocus)

Active Focus (accomodative training)
