[Heredity in myopia].

The authors recall various theories that try to explain the appearance and the evolution of the short-sightedness. It is noticed the fact that none of these theories can include all the cases, but heredity proves a variable percentage. The examination of 200 cases of short-sightedness shows for 120 cases an hereditary factor. The transmission of it was dominant with variable penetration. Concerning the short-sightedness as a disease or malign one, the authors talk about a genetic condemnation of the sclera.
