A Comparative Study of Refraction in Skiascopy and Autorefractometry before and after Application of Cycloplegics

Purpose: To evaluate the difference of refractive errors measured by skiascopy and autorefractometry before after application cycloplegics according to age, degree myopia astigmatism.Methods: School (384 eyes 227 persons) were instillation cycloplegics, each error was compared. According it divided into elementary school group (236 eyes), middle high (54 university (94 eyes). Myopic spherical power classified mild with -2.0 diopter (D) or less (119 moderate D more -6.0 (178 greater than (87 Astigmatism is (296 eyes) (88 eyes).Results: The post-cycloplegics equivalent values be lower manifest autorefractometry, astigmatic cycloplegic refraction high, but there no statistically significant (<i>p</i> > 0.05). In case school, value astigmatism increased significantly compared group, between as increased. in group.Conclusions: It should necessary accurately measure wear glasses younger, D, D.
