对大多数女性来说,月经周期是她们生活中不可或缺的一部分。关于月经周期中发生的荷尔蒙变化有广泛的共识,但对生理和心理变化的研究更具争议性。研究了月经周期对各种眼部和视觉变量的影响。这些包括女性性激素在某些眼部疾病中的潜在保护作用,对隐形眼镜耐受性降低的报道,以及在周期中视觉表现的变化。本文对有关人类正常月经周期中视觉和眼睛变化的文献进行了批判性的综述。经期前和经期表现受损的刻板印象受到挑战。许多关于这一主题的研究的不足和困难都被强调了。
For most women the menstrual cycle is an integral part of a major portion of their lives. There is widespread agreement about the hormonal changes that occur during the menstrual cycle, but studies of physical and psychological changes have been more controversial. The influence of the menstrual cycle on various ocular and visual variables has been investigated. These include the potential protective role of female sex hormones in some ocular conditions, reports of reduced tolerance to contact lens wear, and changes in visual performance during the cycle. This paper critically reviews the literature on visual and ocular changes across the normal human menstrual cycle. Stereotypical views of an impairment of performance premenstrually and during menstruation are challenged. The shortcomings of, and difficulties associated with, much of the research on this topic are highlighted.
