Axial length, myopia progression, and myopic maculopathy in Stickler syndrome

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose We lack knowledge on the potentially progressive nature of and the prevalence of complications to myopia as a characteristic trait of Stickler syndrome. Methods This cross‐sectional study combines ophthalmic examination and medical record data on Danish patients with genetically confirmed Stickler syndrome type 1 (COL2A1) and type 2 ...

Longitudinal changes in choroidal thickness in high myopia: Correlation with maculopathy progression and visual outcomes

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate longitudinal changes in choroidal thickness (CT) in highly myopic eyes and their correlation with myopic maculopathy progression and visual outcomes. Methods Retrospective cohort study on 1228 eyes from 781 highly myopic patients with a minimum 5‐year follow‐up (mean 11.5 ± 3.1 years).

Corneal power modelling with OCT data – Thin and thick lens paraxial models versus raytracing

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Evaluating keratometric power with Zeiss index (PKZ), paraxial thick cornea power (Gullstrand [PG]) and power referenced to the front (PFV) and back vertex plane (PBV) and raytracing power (PR), and modelling the deviation from PKZ with a multivariable linear prediction model.

Premyopia Management With Ophthalmic Referral Slows Myopic Shift After School Entry: A Population‐Based Longitudinal Study in Taiwan

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to evaluate the impact of early ophthalmic referral for premyopic preschoolers on myopic spherical equivalent (SE) shift after school entry; and to identify risk factors for nonadherence to follow‐up care. Methods A population‐based longitudinal study followed 742 premyopic preschoolers (−0.5 D < SE ≤ +0.75 D) from ...
