(2012, background): “…trials have been conducted which have demonstrated either no impact of bifocals on progression (Grosvenor et al., 1987), or statistically significant but small reductions in myopia progression and most importantly in axial elongation (Cheng et al., 2010; Fulk et al., 2000; Gwiazda et al., 2003).”
- Atropine for the treatment of childhood myopia. (2006, background): “This would mean introducing a potential treatment confounder into the study because progressive addition lenses were, at that time, being evaluated as an intervention for slowing myopia progression.(11,12) Second, treatment with an atropine concentration of 1% produces some unwanted side effects, su”
- Homeostasis of eye growth and the question of myopia. (2004, positive): “Furthermore, a recent large clinical trial of fitting children with progressive addition lenses to test whether this would slow myopic progression (the lenses would reduce the blur during reading) found that those children with weaker accommodation obtained more benefit from wearing these lenses (Gw”
