Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The shape of the eyeball varies among individuals like the face shape. The size of the eyeball becomes larger during growth phase like the body height. A larger eyeball growth becomes myopic eye. This study found that the children with more westernized dietary food have larger eyes. This supported that the increase in myopia in Japan was due to the increase in height and eyeballs due to improved nutritional status. Furthermore, it is known that there are several patterns in the shape of the eyeball, which may affect the development and diagnosis of eye diseases such as glaucoma and macular hole. And these individual variations of the eyeball was already found in elementary students.
