BACKGROUND To determine the relationship between central corneal thickness (CCT), refractive error, corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth and axial length in normal Taiwanese Chinese adults. METHODS Five hundred normal Taiwanese Chinese patients aged 40-80 years were recruited for the study. Measurement procedures included CCT, refractive error, corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth a...

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE To determine the contribution of refractive error to visual impairment in visually impaired patients attending Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Ghana. METHOD This study was conducted over a period of 1 year beginning October 2002 at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital. Every 4th consecutive new case attending the eye clinic, aged 6 years and above was selected and interviewed using a stru...

Introduction The peripheral refractive error of the human eye has been hypothesized to be a major stimulus for the development of its central refractive error. Aim The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes in the peripheral refractive error across horizontal, vertical and two diagonal meridians in emmetropic and low, moderate and high myopic adults. Subjects and methods Thirt...

Purpose To investigate the characteristics of retinal electrophysiological activity in relation to early myopia development in children. Methods Fifty-six children aged 6 to 9 years with emmetropic refractive error (defined as ≥ -0.5 diopter [D] and ≤ +0.5 D) were recruited. Cycloplegic refraction, axial length, and global flash multifocal electroretinogram (MOFO mfERG) at 49% and 96% contras...

OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of treating uncorrected refractive error through spectacle correction on vision-targeted health-related quality of life and depressive symptoms in nursing home residents. METHODS Persons aged 55 years or older residing in nursing homes in Birmingham, Alabama, having uncorrected refractive error were randomly assigned to either immediate spectacle correction of ...

BACKGROUND The prevalence of myopia in parts of South East Asia has risen dramatically over the past 1-2 generations, suggesting that environmental factors may be particularly important determinants of refractive development in these populations. AIM To assess the contribution of familial factors (shared genes and/or shared family environment) to refractive error and ocular component dimensio...

Amblyopia is usually associated with the presence of anisometropia, strabismus or both early in life. We set out to explore quantitative relationships between the degree of anisometropia and the loss of visual function, and to examine how the presence of strabismus affects visual function in observers with anisometropia. We measured optotype acuity, Pelli-Robson contrast sensitivity and stereoa...

Purpose: To evaluate the correlation of central corneal thickness (CCT) with refractive error and keratometry in a group of patients eligible for laser keratorefractive surgery, which may serve as a bias in studies on intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement Methods: In a cross sectional observational study, the right eyes of 340 patients who underwent laser keratorefractive surgery during the ye...

Methods: A total of 748 students (748 eyes) from the primary school group (PS: 483 eyes), middle school group (MS: 78 eyes) and senior high school group (SHS: 187 eyes) were included in this prospective observational case series study. The refractive error values were determined using an automatic refractometer. The spherical refractive error, cylinder power and axis were measured by non-cyclop...

OBJECTIVE To report the baseline prevalence of refractive error in the study population. DESIGN A multicenter, longitudinal, observational study of refractive error and ocular development in children from 4 ethnic groups. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study population included 2523 children (534 African American, 491 Asian, 463 Hispanic, and 1035 white) in grades 1 to 8 (age, 5-17 years). Myopia...
