The only studies that showed the increased myopia due to use of a
minus lens:
1) Were with ONE SPECIES of monkey (it didn't do it with others);
2) Were with monkeys who didn't NEED the lens;
3) Were sutured on the eye and remained there 24/7
In all other studies, even a period break--say an hour or two--negated
even these effects.
Other studies have shown that UNDER-correction of myopia hastens its
progression. |
