Model of naturally occurring refractive error (NORE) in mice

The paper introduces a novel genetically diverse mouse model of naturally occurring refractive error (NORE) with three distinct refractive phenotypes, offering a tool for studying genetic and environmental factors in refractive errors without inducing myopia through interventions.

Modulation of all-trans retinoic acid by light and dopamine in the murine eye

This study investigates how ambient light and dopamine affect all-trans retinoic acid levels in the mouse eye, finding that light exposure reduces atRA and that dopamine influences atRA levels.

Optical blur affects differently ON and OFF visual pathways

The paper shows optical blur affects ON and OFF visual pathways differently, expanding ON receptive fields and shrinking OFF ones, with implications for retinal image quality and eye growth.
