Abstract:
Objective parameters of accommodation (amplitude, time of response, and stability) were evaluated in patients with myopia aged 7-22 years on an AA-2000 Nidek accommodographer. A decrease in accommodation response depended on age and degree of myopia. Rapid accommodation parameters were in high correlation with the relative accommodation reserve. Three groups of patients with different efficiency of accommodation training were distinguished: with positive effect (77.1%), no effect, and paradoxical effect.

01:27Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.

01:16Focusing of Light in the Eye
Light rays enter the eye through the cornea, a transparent dome-shaped tissue that is the eye's outermost layer. The cornea bends or refracts, light rays traveling to the pupil. The shape of the cornea determines how much of the light is bent and whether the image will be focused correctly on the retina at the back of the eye. Once the light has passed through both refraction layers, it converges into a single focal point onto a small area. This is where photoreceptors start transforming...
