isoflurophate and Myopia

isoflurophate has been researched along with Myopia in 2 studies

Isoflurophate: A di-isopropyl-fluorophosphate which is an irreversible cholinesterase inhibitor used to investigate the NERVOUS SYSTEM.

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.

"The excessive enlargement of the eye seen in myopia is known to be regulated, in part, by retinal neurotransmitters."3.71Diisopropylfluorophosphate alters retinal neurotransmitter levels and reduces experimentally-induced myopia. ( Brew, J; Cottriall, CL; McBrien, NA; Vessey, KA, 2001)
