The research conducted by Yajing Yang (PhD student), Shinichi Ikeda (Project Assistant Professor), and colleagues has been published in Life.
Scleral remodeling is considered essential for the progression of myopia, as it maintains the structural integrity of the eyeball. In this study, the authors utilized polarized light microscopy to visualize and quantify higher-order structural changes in the sclera, revealing that collagen fiber bundles are reduced in myopic eyes.
