Abstract
Changes in eye size during the development of refractive error are accompanied by alterations in scleral biochemistry in both humans and animal models of myopia. This review discusses more recent data on scleral changes in mammalian models of myopia and considers the role of visual information in the control of scleral matrix biology. These visually-driven changes in scleral biochemistry are placed in the context of both the emmetropisation process and the abnormal enlargement of the eye that is characteristic of human high myopia.
