The dependence of occipital and frontal lobes of the brain cortex bioelectrical activity and function from blood and oxygen supply was investigated in 626 minopic and 80 children and teenagers with normal vision. Myopia was found a natural model of blood and oxygen deprivation, of decrease of bioelectrical activity of frontal and partially occipital lobes, especially. The decrease of alpha-rythme index and alpha-waves amplitude was found on EEG of occipital lobes. Adaptation to hypoxia in the course of interval hypoxic training and the course of osteoreflex stimulation were proved to be reliable means for improving blood and oxygen supply of occipital and frontal lobes of the brain cortex, which was followed by normalization of EEG and vision: the sharpness of vision rose to 1.0-0.9 in 80% of children and in 60% of teenagers.
