Potassium Channel and NKCC Cotransporter Involvement in Ocular Refractive Control Mechanisms

Myopia affects well over 30% of adult humans globally. However, the underlying physiological mechanism is little understood. This study tested the hypothesis that ocular growth and refractive compensation to optical defocus can be controlled by manipulation of potassium and chloride ion-driven trans...
