Normative data and percentile curves for axial length and axial length/corneal curvature in Chinese children and adolescents aged 4-18 years

Xiangui He et al.

Summary: This study developed age-specific and gender-specific reference percentile charts for axial length (AL) and AL/corneal radius of curvature (AL/CR), which can be used to determine probability of myopia, estimate refractive error (RE), and identify and monitor individuals at risk of myopia. The accuracy of these percentile charts was validated using an independent sample of children's eyes. The results showed a high concordance between the estimated and actual measurements.

Crystalline lens thickness change is associated with axial length elongation and myopia progression in orthokeratology

Zengying Wang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the ocular measurements associated with axial length (AL) growth in children wearing ortho-k lenses. The results showed that both crystalline lens thickness (CLT) and AL significantly increased after 12 months of ortho-k wear. Greater baseline spherical equivalent (SE) and greater increase in CLT were associated with less increase in AL during ortho-k wear in children with myopia.

Seasonal Variation in Diurnal Rhythms of the Human Eye: Implications for Continuing Ocular Growth in Adolescents and Young Adults

Nickolai G. Nilsen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the diurnal rhythms in the human eye in winter and summer in southeast Norway. The results suggest that ocular biometry rhythms are synchronized with melatonin secretion and show seasonal variation in young adult eyes. The variations in axial length and choroidal thickness are associated with seasonal changes in melatonin levels, indicating individual differences in adaptation to ocular diurnal rhythms.

Corneal thickness changes in myopic children during and after short-term orthokeratology lens wear

Kin Wan et al.

Summary: This study evaluated thickness changes in different layers of the cornea in myopic children during and after short-term ortho-k lens wear. The results showed significant reductions in CET with higher reduction in eyes wearing ICF lenses, while corneal thickness changes were reversible after discontinuing lens wear.

Longitudinal analysis of axial length growth in a German cohort of healthy children and adolescents

Carolin Truckenbrod et al.

Summary: The study aimed to generate growth curves for axial length in German children and found that boys tend to have longer eyes than girls, with this difference decreasing with age. The percentile curves of axial length can be used as a predictive measure for developing myopia.

Myopia and glaucoma progression among patients with juvenile onset open angle glaucoma: A retrospective follow up study

Franziska G. Rauscher et al.

Summary: This study aimed to identify risk factors for glaucoma progression in juvenile open angle glaucoma (JOAG) patients, particularly the association with myopia. The results showed that myopia was significantly associated with glaucoma progression, with myopic patients being 18 times more likely to progress compared to non-myopic patients. Additionally, baseline myopic refraction and faster myopia development were associated with JOAG progressors.
