Bidirectional Expression of Metabolic, Structural, and Immune Pathways in Early Myopia and Hyperopia
Myopia (short-sightedness) affects 1.45 billion people worldwide, many of whom will develop sight-threatening secondary disorders. Myopic eyes are characterized by excessive size while hyperopic (long-sighted) eyes are typically small. The biological and genetic mechanisms underpinning the retina’s...
