Geographic environment-related research advances on children's myopia : intraocular and environmental exposure factors and analytical methods

Myopia has become a global phenomenon, transitioning into a significant public health issue of worldwide reach. The escalating prevalence of myopia may lead to an increase in the incidence of related complications, potentially resulting in irreversible vision damage for individuals. This not only causes considerable economic strain on societies but also poses a serious threat to vital sectors like national defense. This review outlines various external and internal exposure factors related to childhood myopia. It places particular focus on the analysis of the interaction between geographical environmental factors and internal exposure factors, and examines the limitations of applying traditional methods in studying the relationship between childhood myopia and geographical environmental factors. The paper also introduces two spatial regression methodologies based on frequency estimation and Bayesian estimation, summarizing their feasibility and merits when applied in the study of external exposure elements related to childhood myopia. Finally, it provides a fresh perspective on regional childhood myopia prevention strategies that are conscious of geographical environmental factors.
