Background and Aim: Purpose:Unilateral myopia is defined as a condition that amount of myopia in one eye is greater than in the other and the difference in myopia is high It results in a reduction of UCVA vision in one eye over the other. This can be congenital or acquired. Because accomodation in both eyes at the same time ,creating myopia unilaterally is important to someone who has never had myopia before
Methods: Observation: Accomodative Spasms (psuedo myopia) are far rarer than accomodative spasms (pseudo myopia) .We report a case of penetrating trauma (caused by a broken glass) leading to unilateral myopia
Results: Unilateral accommodative spasm is far rarer than bilateral accomodative spasms that numerous cases have been reported so far and in every report a special cause It is expressed for it. Factors such as head trauma, blunt eye trauma , psychological disorders , neurological disorders , Same as multiple sclerosis, drug side effects, and topical eye diseases(Iridocyclitis) Is mentioned for it
Conclusion: numerous cases of unilateral myopia have been reported so far ,each report has a specific reason is expressed for it: factors such as head trauma, blunt eye trauma, psychological disorders, like multiple sclerosis , drug side effects, topical eye diseases(Iridocyclitis) Is mentioned for it. So according to our reviews penetrating trauma to the glass can stimulate the nerve of the ciliary muscle, resulting in unilateral myopia
