@DkhissiBenyahya Thanks Ouria :)

In this #systematic #review, we not only summarize the effectiveness of light therapy strategies but also report and discuss their safety and implementation potential for myopia prevention and control, based on the current available literature.

[Ray P. Najjar @Ray_Najjar]

Check out our latest publication with @NickSevdalis on the #effectiveness, #safety, and #implementation of #lighttherapy strategies for #myopia #prevention and control.

@laurenhartstein Love it 😊

Just out in IOVS - When it comes to myopia-control, the synergetic effect of high-intensity light and unrestricted vision (defocus removal) is dependent on the duration of the interventions.

It is fantastic to hear about the ENLIGHT Consensus Checklist and Guidelines. This transparent checklist will be a valuable resource for researchers in advancing their understanding of how light impacts human health. I look forward to using it in my future research studies.

💡☀️ How to report light interventions in a systematic way?

We are proud to present the consensus-based ENLIGHT Checklist and Guidelines.

New work with @LauraKervezee, @LokRenske, @elisemcglashan, @ray_najjar, and the ENLIGHT Consortium.

Editor's pick from our most read Reviews:
Epidemiological studies report an association between outdoor time and #myopia prevention in children.
Here, @Ray_Najjar et al explore the mechanisms through which outdoor light could prevent or stop myopia:
