This paper addresses the functional state of the cortical visual analyzer in children with progressive myopia based on the results of computer electroencephalography (EEG). We observed 40 patients aged from 7 to 16, including 15 patients with stabilized myopia, 15 patients with progressive myopia, and 10 patients without visual pathologies (the control group). The computer EEG method revealed moderate disruption of the cortico-subcortical interactions with signs of attenuation of the caudal cortical alpha rhythm generator, and enhancement of the functional role of the mast structures in children with a progressive course of myopia.
