Our research highlights RLRL as a promising and novel therapy that can shorten myopic AL in more than 25% of eyes by 0.142 ± 0.095 mm/year.

Need to look into the device used. My theory and hope is they were getting myopic peripheral defocus. Also need to look at the study that shows peripheral hyperopia is the strongest correlation to axial length increases, because that had some references to cons/rods and what type of light is most impactful.

Their website (https://www.eyerisinginternational.com/the-device/, just choose new zealand or UK) says the red light is targeted on the retina. See also their blog post: https://www.opticianonline.net/content/features/myopia-repeated-low-level-red-light-therapy

I also wonder – there’s WTR (with the rule) astigmatism. Could that have anything to do with the fact that most lens wear is wider than tall? Or maybe it’s just Elliot Forrest’s ideas about posture
