Role Of Nutrition on Myopia Progression

Abstract

This is a descriptive research based on a systematic review of previously published articles in order to examine the relationship between nutrition and the progression of myopia in children. The literature encompasses the published articles from 2015 to 2022 examined the exclusive role of various nutritional factors influencing myopia progression. The deficiencies and supplement administration are also taken into consideration while selecting the influencing variables during the progression of the disease. These include primarily Vitamin A, and D, Zinc deficiencies, administration of dietary supplements, and healthcare behavioral change studies in particular. The extensive literature review agrees with the findings of most of the research and clinical studies done previously as there are no significant, proven connection between nutrition and myopia progression.

“…This was notably the case with the question, ‘What type of diet/vitamin supplementation can help prevent myopia/myopia progression?’ (Question 11, ‘Treatment and Prevention’ domain, Supplementary Tables S1a–c ). Despite ongoing research yielding inconclusive evidence about the correlation between diet, supplements, and the prevention of myopia or myopia progression, 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 all three LLM-Chatbots recommended the consumption of supplements such as omega-3 fatty acids ( Supplementary Tables 1a–c, 4b and c ). These observations highlight the risk of LLM-Chatbots providing misinformation to unsuspecting patients, while indicating their limited ability to identify and rectify such instances.…”
