Myopia Causes, Prevention, Treatments, and Remedies

Myopia, also known as near-sightedness and short-sightedness, is an eye disorder where light focuses in front of, instead of on, the retina. As a result, distant objects appear blurry while close objects appear normal. Other symptoms may include headaches and eye strain. Severe near-sightedness is associated with an increased risk of retinal detachment, cataracts, and glaucoma. Uncorrected near-sightedness is one of the most common causes of vision impairment globally along with cataracts, macular degeneration, and vitamin A deficiency. Going through this article will let you know about the causes, prevention, treatment, home remedies, and Siddha remedies of Swami Hardas Life System for well-being.

Myopia Meaning

Nearsightedness (myopia) is a common vision condition in which you can see objects near to you clearly, but objects farther away are blurry. It occurs when the shape of your eye causes light rays to bend (refract) incorrectly, focusing images in front of your retina instead of on your retina.

Myopia Symptoms

Affected individuals can see clearly at a certain distance (the far point of the eye), but objects placed beyond this distance appear blurred. Even standard reading distances can be affected if myopia’s extent is great enough. Upon routine examination of the eyes, the vast majority of myopic eyes appear structurally identical to nonmyopic eyes. Onset is often in school children, with worsening between the ages of 8 and 15.

Myopia Causes

The underlying cause is believed to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Risk factors include doing work that involves focusing on close objects, greater time spent indoors, urbanization, and a family history of the condition. It is also associated with a high socioeconomic class and a higher level of education.

A 2012 review could not find strong evidence for any single cause, although many theories have been discredited. Twin studies indicate that at least some genetic factors are involved. Myopia has been increasing rapidly throughout the developed world, suggesting environmental factors are involved.

Genetics

Genetic linkage studies have identified 18 possible loci on 15 different chromosomes that are associated with myopia. None of these loci is part of the candidate genes that cause myopia. Instead of a simple one-gene locus controlling the onset, a complex interaction of many mutated proteins acting in concert may be the cause.

Instead of myopia being caused by a defect in a structural protein, defects in the control of these structural proteins might be the actual cause. A collaboration of all myopia studies worldwide identified 16 new loci for refractive error in individuals of European ancestry, of which 8 were shared with Asians. 

Human population studies suggest that the contribution of genetic factors accounts for 60–90% of the variance in refraction. However, the currently identified variants account for only a small fraction of myopia cases, suggesting the existence of a large number of yet unidentified low-frequency or small-effect variants, which underlie the majority of myopia cases.

Environmental factors

Environmental factors which increase the risk of nearsightedness include insufficient light exposure, low physical activity, near work, and increased year of education.

One hypothesis is that a lack of normal visual stimuli causes improper development of the eyeball. Under this hypothesis, “normal” refers to the environmental stimuli that the eyeball evolved to. Modern humans who spend most of their time indoors, in dimly or fluorescently lit buildings may be at risk of development of myopia.

People, and children especially, who spend more time doing physical exercise and outdoor play have lower rates of myopia, suggesting the increased magnitude and complexity of the visual stimuli encountered during these types of activities decrease myopic progression. There is preliminary evidence that the protective effect of outdoor activities on the development of myopia is due, at least in part, to the effect of long hours of exposure to daylight on the production and the release of retinal dopamine.

Nearsightedness is also more common in children with diabetes, childhood arthritis, uveitis, and systemic lupus erythematosus.

Myopia Mechanism

Because myopia is a refractive error, the physical cause of myopia is comparable to any optical system that is out of focus. Borish and Duke-Elder classified myopia by these physical causes:

  • Axial myopia is attributed to an increase in the eye’s axial length 
  • Refractive myopia is attributed to the condition of the refractive elements of the eye. Borish further subclassified refractive myopia:
  • Curvature myopia is attributed to excessive or increased, a curvature of one or more of the refractive surfaces of the eye, especially the cornea. 
  • Index myopia is attributed to variation in the index of refraction of one or more of the ocular media.

Under rare conditions, edema of the ciliary body can cause an anterior displacement of the lens, inducing a myopia shift in refractive error.

Myopia Diagnosis

A diagnosis of myopia is typically made by an eye care professional, usually an optometrist or ophthalmologist. During refraction, an autorefractor or retinoscope is used to give an initial objective assessment of the refractive status of each eye, then a phoropter is used to subjectively refine the patient’s eyeglass prescription. Other types of refractive error are hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

Myopia Types

Various forms of myopia have been described by their clinical appearance:

  • Simple myopia: Myopia in an otherwise normal eye, typically less than 4.00 to 6.00 diopters. This is the most common form of myopia.
  • Degenerative myopia, also known as malignant, pathological, or progressive myopia, is characterized by marked fundus changes, such as posterior staphyloma, and is associated with a high refractive error and subnormal visual acuity after correction. 
  • Pseudomyopia is the blurring of distance vision brought about by a spasm of the accommodation system.
  • Nocturnal myopia: Without adequate stimulus for accurate accommodation, the accommodation system partially engages, pushing distance objects out of focus.
  • Near work-induced transient myopia (NITM): short-term myopic far point shift immediately following a sustained near visual task. 
  • Instrument myopia: over-accommodation when looking into an instrument such as a microscope.
  • Induced myopia, also known as acquired myopia, results from various medications, increases in glucose levels, nuclear sclerosis, oxygen toxicity (e.g., from diving or from oxygen and hyperbaric therapy), or other anomalous conditions. 
  • Index myopia is attributed to variation in the index of refraction of one or more of the ocular media. Cataracts may lead to index myopia.
  • Form deprivation myopia occurs when the eyesight is deprived by limited illumination and vision range, or the eye is modified with artificial lenses or deprived of clear form vision. 

Age at onset

Myopia is sometimes classified by the age at onset:

  • Congenital myopia, also known as infantile myopia, is present at birth and persists through infancy.
  • Youth onset myopia occurs in early childhood or teenage, and the ocular power can keep varying until the age of 21, before which any form of corrective surgery is usually not recommended by ophthalmic specialists around the world.
  • School myopia appears during childhood, particularly the school-age years. This form of myopia is attributed to the use of the eyes for close work during the school years.
  • Adult onset myopia:
  • Early adult-onset myopia occurs between ages 20 and 40.
  • Late adult-onset myopia occurs after age 40.

Myopia Prevention

Various methods have been employed in an attempt to decrease the progression of myopia, although studies show mixed results. Many myopia treatment studies have a number of design drawbacks: 

  • Small numbers, lack of adequate control group, and
  • Failure to mask examiners from knowledge of treatments used.

Among myopia specialists, mydriatic eye drops are the most favored approach, applied by almost 75% in North America and more than 80% in Australia. 

Glasses and contacts

The use of reading glasses when doing close work may improve vision by reducing or eliminating the need to accommodate. Altering the use of eyeglasses between full-time, part-time, and not at all does not appear to alter myopia progression.

The American Optometric Association’s Clinical Practice Guidelines found evidence of the effectiveness of bifocal lenses and recommend it as the method for “myopia control”. In some studies, bifocal and progressive lenses have not shown differences in altering the progression of myopia compared to placebo.

In 2019 contact lenses to prevent the worsening of nearsightedness in children were approved for use in the United States. This “MiSight” type claims to work by focusing peripheral light in front of the retina.

Medication

Anti-muscarinic topical medications in children under 18 years of age may slow the worsening of myopia. These treatments include:

  • Pirenzepine gel,
  • Cyclopentolate eye drops, and
  • Atropine eye drops.

Myopia Treatment

The National Institutes of Health says there is no known way of preventing myopia, and the use of glasses or contact lenses does not affect its progression unless the glasses or contact lenses are too strong of a prescription. There is no universally accepted method of preventing myopia and proposed methods need additional study to determine their effectiveness.

Optical correction using glasses or contact lenses is the most common treatment; other approaches include orthokeratology and refractive surgery. Medications (mostly atropine) and vision therapy can be effective in addressing the various forms of pseudomyopia.

Glasses and contacts

The power of any lens system can be expressed in diopters, the reciprocal of its focal length in meters. Corrective lenses for myopia have negative powers because a divergent lens is required to move the far point of focus out to the distance.

More severe myopia needs lens powers further from zero (more negative). However, strong eyeglass prescriptions create distortions such as prismatic movement and chromatic aberration.

Strongly near-sighted wearers of contact lenses do not experience these distortions because the lens moves with the cornea, keeping the optic axis in line with the visual axis and because the vertex distance has been reduced to zero.

Surgery

Refractive surgery includes procedures that alter the corneal curvature of some structure of the eye or which add additional refractive means inside the eye.

Photorefractive keratectomy

Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) involves the ablation of corneal tissue from the corneal surface using an excimer laser. The amount of tissue ablation corresponds to the amount of myopia. While PRK is a relatively safe procedure for up to 6 dioptres of myopia, the recovery phase post-surgery is usually painful.

LASIK

In a LASIK pre-procedure, a corneal flap is cut into the cornea and lifted to allow the excimer laser beam access to the exposed corneal tissue. After that, the excimer laser ablates the tissue according to the required correction. When the flap again covers the cornea, the change in curvature generated by the laser ablation proceeds to the corneal surface.

Though LASIK is usually painless and involves a short rehabilitation period post-surgery, it can potentially result in flap complications and loss of corneal stability (post-LASIK keratectasia).

Phakic intraocular lens

Instead of modifying the corneal surface, as in laser vision correction (LVC), this procedure involves implanting an additional lens inside the eye (i.e., in addition to the already existing natural lens). While it usually results in good control of the refractive change, it can induce potential serious long-term complications such as glaucoma, cataract, and endothelial decompensation.

Orthokeratology

Orthokeratology or simply Ortho-K is a temporary corneal reshaping process using rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses. The overnight wearing of specially designed contact lenses will temporarily reshape the cornea, so patients may see clearly without any lenses in the daytime. Orthokeratology can correct myopia up to -6D.

Several studies have shown that Ortho-K can reduce myopia progression also. Risk factors of using Ortho-K lenses include microbial keratitis, corneal edema, etc. Other contact lens-related complications like corneal aberration, photophobia, pain, irritation, redness, etc. are usually temporary conditions, which may be eliminated by proper usage of lenses.

Intrastromal corneal ring segment

The Intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS), commonly used in keratoconus treatment now, was originally designed to correct mild to moderate myopia.

The thickness is directly related to flattening and the diameter of the ring is proportionally inverse to the flattening of the cornea. So, if the diameter is smaller or the thickness is greater, myopia correction will be greater.

Alternative medicine

A number of alternative therapies have been claimed to improve myopia, including vision therapy, “behavioral optometry”, various eye exercises and relaxation techniques, and the Bates method. 

Scientific reviews have concluded that there was “no clear scientific evidence” that eye exercises are effective in treating near-sightedness and as such they “cannot be advocated”.

Ayurveda treatment for Myopia

According to Ayurveda, vitiated Vata dosha at eye level makes the eye muscles weak. The eye muscles lose their strength to focus on a distant object. Ayurveda medicines and dietary changes can be helpful to correct myopia.

Annalepana, Netradhara, Kizhiswedan, Nasya, and Tharpana are the procedures that can normalize the vitiated Vata dosha. Eye exercise is undoubted of great help once the Vata dosha settles. We have seen excellent results in patients who have glass power less than -1.00. Ayurvedic treatment for Myopia can prevent the further progression of the glasses’ power in others.

Home remedies for Myopia

Here are some home remedies for myopia that can help improve vision:

Eye exercises

According to research, eye exercises may have an effect on myopic conditions, which is why ophthalmologists always recommend eye exercises along with medication and prescription glasses. Yoga can be yet another source of eye exercise.

Breathing exercises

Breathing exercises can also be performed as home potential remedies for myopia. Close your eyes and inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth in a steady and continuous manner for more than three minutes. Do not strain by trying to breathe in more air than usual.

Taking breaks

Continuous reading, watching TV, and working on a computer for long hours require our eyes to focus at short distances and thus myopia can set in. In order to reduce the severity or appearance of myopia, one must take regular breaks from continuous reading, watching TV, or working on the computer.

Working in adequately lit spaces

Working in low light conditions puts extra stress on our eyes, which strains the muscles inside and reshapes them, resulting in myopia.

Vitamins

Vitamins A, B, C, D, and E have been associated with good eyesight. These vitamins are found in foods like carrots, tomatoes, apples, peppers, fish, green leafy vegetables, dried fruits, and nuts, and can be very beneficial for vision.

Triphala (Ayurvedic Approach)

Ayurveda, the ancient Indian medicinal system, prescribes Triphala or a mix of three fruit extracts for myopia. The three fruits include:

  • Beleric myrobalan, 
  • Indian gooseberry, and 
  • Chebulic myrobalan.

Almond, Coconut, Anise seed, and Candy sugar

The powdered mix of these ingredients is probably one of the simplest potential home remedies for myopia. Consume this powder twice daily as this might improve nearsightedness.

Licorice

Take licorice in a very small quantity (not more than half a spoon) and mash it up. Make two equal parts, mix one in honey and the other in ghee. Consume these mixtures twice every day with milk as a potential remedy for myopia.

Siddha remedies for Myopia

1. Siddha preventive measures

Everybody must practice Siddha preventive measures, whether a person is affected by myopia or not, but preventive measures are the primary steps for switching on to any other Siddha remedies, and hence they are important. It helps in one’s capability, effectiveness, productivity, decision-making power, intellectuality, and removing minor health problems. There are three types of preventive measures:

  • Earthing – performed for removing and earthing the negativity of our body
  • Field cleaning – cleans the energy field (Aura) of our body
  • Siddha brain exercise/Energizing – energizes our brain for proper functionality

Everybody’s tendency is to get attracted to the word ‘free, however, don’t neglect even these Siddha preventive measures are free. Avail of the benefits by practicing them sincerely, and regularly. For ease of understanding of what Siddha preventive measures are, please watch a video for a live demonstration.
