[Conditions for the development of myopia in schoolchildren].
School myopia is a most common health problem in schoolchildren, in adolescents in particular. School myopia resulted from connective tissue failure of the whole organism. Some data, such as the association of school myopia with the HLA system confirm this idea. New investigations in this direction will assist in concretizing the real cause of this type of myopia. The interaction between the lighting conditions and the development of refraction is also of interest.
