Characteristics of peripheral refractive errors of myopic and non-myopic Chinese eyes
Interest in peripheral refractive errors has increased as it was hypothesized that peripheral hypermetropia might provide a stimulus for axial elongation (Smith et al., 2005), this study was to determine relative peripheral refractive errors (RPRE) of the eyes of a group of Chinese children and adults. Central and peripheral (20 degrees , 30 degrees , 40 degrees at nasal, temporal, superior and...
متن کاملPeripheral refractive errors in myopic, emmetropic, and hyperopic young subjects.
To gain more insight into the relationship between foveal and peripheral refractive errors in humans, spheres, cylinders, and their axes were binocularly measured across the visual field in myopic, emmetropic, and hyperopic groups of young subjects. Both automated infrared photorefraction (the "PowerRefractor"; www. plusoptix.de) and a double-pass technique were used because the PowerRefractor ...
متن کاملOptimum corneal asphericity of myopic eyes for refractive surgery
In this work, an improvement to the Munnerlyn formula used in refractive surgery is proposed by selecting the final corneal asphericity. A theoretical optical analysis has been performed by adopting the RMS (root mean square) spot size as a merit function. Two different sets of myopes having refractive errors ranging up to 7D have been tested. The results show that a corneal asphericity of arou...
متن کاملRefractive errors in high myopic eyes after phacovitrectomy for macular hole.
AIM To examine the refractive prediction error in high myopic eyes after phacovitrectomy. METHODS This retrospective comparative case series included 91 eyes (18 high myopic eyes and 73 non-high myopic eyes) of 91 patients who underwent successful phacovitrectomy (phacoemulsification, intraocular lens implantation, and pars plana vitrectomy). The high myopic eyes were defined as the eye with ...
متن کاملPeripheral optical errors and their change with accommodation differ between emmetropic and myopic eyes.
The progression of myopia is thought to be controlled by the retinal image quality, but its triggering factors are not yet well known. The differences between the peripheral optics in emmetropic and myopic eyes might explain why some eyes become myopic. The present study further investigates peripheral optical quality and how it is affected by accommodation. The refraction and aberrations of th...
