However, it is unclear whether the structural, or refractive components myopia; both, main contributor to this protective relationship. This paper provides comprehensive review existing evidence on myopia, its structural (axial length [AL], anterior chamber depth [ACD]) (lens biometry corneal curvature [CC]) components, with DR. 11 studies consisting 7230 subjects from 1960 April 2012, were reviewed. longer AL was only variable associated lower severity Therefore, available suggests that influence DR observed earlier Further investigations are now needed determine mechanisms by which protects against
