Abstract

Myopia has emerged as one of the major health issues in China given its increasingly high prevalence. It is generally accepted that myopia is the result of a complex interaction of environmental exposures and genetic predisposition. Many studies have indicated that abnormal visual stimulation regulates retinal neurotransmitters and growth factors to release resulting in scleral remodeling and axial elongation through signaling pathway transduction. It has been reported that the signaling pathways play important roles in the elongation of axial length and development of myopia. In this study, we reviewed several important signaling pathways implicated myopia.(Chin J Ophthalmol, 2019, 55:148-152).
