Purpose: To investigate the genetic correlation and causal links between sleep traits (including sleep duration, chronotype, and insomnia) and myopia. Methods: Summary data on three sleep traits (sleep duration, chronotype and insomnia) and myopia from FinnGen (n = 214,211) and UK Biobank (n = 460,536) were analyzed using linkage disequilibrium score regression (LD Score), univariable and multivariable mendelian randomization (MR) experiments and Causal Analysis Using Summary Effect (CAUSE) estimation. Results: LD Score regression detected candidate genetic correlation between sleep traits and myopia, such as sleep duration, chronotype (Genetic Correlation Z-score >10.00, h2_observed_p < 0.005, Lambda GC > 1.05, p > 0.05). Univariable MR analyses indicated that increased sleep duration has a promotional effect on the occurrence of myopia (p = 0.046 < 0.05, P_FDR = 0.138 < 0.2, OR = 2.872, 95% CI: 1.018-8.101). However, after accounting for potential confounding factors, multivariable MR and CAUSE analysis did not provide evidence for a causal effect of the three sleep traits on myopia. Conclusion: There may be a potential genetic correlation between sleep duration, chronotype and myopia. However, neither of sleep duration, chronotype or insomnia had causal effect on myopia.
