A core tenant of EM is that doing [[near work]] in lenses designed for [[distance work]] causes myopia progression. Even if hyperopic blur is not induced by the lenses, the [[accommodation]] system is being constantly stressed and this encourages [[eye axial lengthening]]. This is supported by the fact that both [[bifocals]] and [[multifocals]], which allow the eye to use less accommodation to do near work, are protective against myopia progression {{Citation needed}} | A core tenant of EM is that doing [[near work]] in lenses designed for [[distance work]] causes myopia progression.
