Refraction of a participant with rapid myopia progression from 20 (year 2010) to 28 years old (year 2018). Refraction (spherical equivalent) history obtained from participant's optometrist *apart from 2013 when the participant did not visit the optometrist. The participant reported their occupation during the 8-year period to be computer-intensive (at or close to 100%), with the exception of the year 2013 and mid-2016 to 2017, when most of their time was spent on outdoor academic field work or traveling. While no refraction data was available at 2013 (*), from 2016 to 2017, no myopia progression was documented.
