Article Synopsis
- - The study focused on how chick retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) gene expression of BMPs (Bone Morphogenetic Proteins) changes during recovery after short-term optical treatments, including lens wear and form deprivation.
- - White-Leghorn chicks were subjected to different lenses or diffusers for various durations, and then their recovery was monitored in terms of refractive errors and changes in choroidal thickness (ChT) over 96 hours.
- - Key findings indicated that BMP2 gene expression significantly increased with +10 D lens treatment shortly after application, while -10 D and form deprivation treatments led to a decrease in BMP2 expression, with recovery times being notably different between treatments.
