The purpose was to assess the differences in spherical equivalent refractive error (SER) between cycloplegic autorefraction (1% cyclopentolate), non-cycloplegic autorefraction, and non-cycloplegic retinoscopy measured by experienced optometrists in a population with a high prevalence of hyperopia. Refractive error was measured with the three methods in

Cycloplegic and Noncycloplegic Refractions of Chinese Neonatal Infants
To examine Chinese neonatal infants with both cycloplegic and noncycloplegic retinoscopy and to compare the distribution of refractive errors for the two techniques.Cycloplegic retinoscopy was performed by two experienced pediatric ophthalmologists on 81 neonatal infants randomly selected from a group of 185 neonates who had undergone noncycloplegic ...

Conjunctival ultraviolet autofluorescence area, but not intensity, is associated with myopia [PDF]
Background:Conjunctival ultraviolet autofluorescence (CUVAF) has been used as a biomarker of time spent outdoors and smaller CUVAF area is associated with myopia in Southern Hemisphere cohorts.
