Description

Fayez Alshehri and co-authors review links between bite alignment and vision problems in a 2025 paper. Anatomy suggests the jaw system and the visual system may connect. Proof so far is scattered and of unsure quality. The review asks what links exist among bite, jaw joint disorders, and visual measures.

The search covered medical databases from 1946 to March 2025, in English only. Ten studies passed the screen: cross-sectional work, case reports, and one experiment. Hints link class II bite faults to nearsightedness and jaw disorders to odd pupil and focus responses. Yet proof strength was rated very low. The authors urge better studies before clinics act on the link.
