betaxolol and Myopia

betaxolol has been researched along with Myopia in 6 studies

Myopia: A refractive error in which rays of light entering the EYE parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the RETINA when accommodation (ACCOMMODATION, OCULAR) is relaxed. This results from an overly curved CORNEA or from the eyeball being too long from front to back. It is also called nearsightedness.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In this prospective randomized double-masked comparative case series, 34 patients having LASIK for myopia were randomly assigned to receive topical betaxolol 0."5.10Effect of laser in situ keratomileusis on optic nerve head topography and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness. ( Bowman, RW; Cavanagh, HD; Hertzog, L; McCulley, JP; Song, J; Whitson, JT, 2003)
"The purposes of the present study were to assess the effect of a sympathetic inhibitory pharmacologic agent, timolol maleate, on the magnitude of nearwork-induced transient myopia (NITM) and its decay in different refractive groups for an extended near task duration and to determine the proportion of the young adult population manifesting effective sympathetic access under naturalistic closed-loop viewing conditions."3.75Sympathetic inhibition of accommodation after sustained nearwork in subjects with myopia and emmetropia. ( Ciuffreda, KJ; Gilmartin, B; Vasudevan, B, 2009)
