Abstract
Young Chinese children are predominantly mildly hyperopic, with a low prevalence of myopia by the age of 6 years. An increase of 1 mm in AL was associated with only 0.45 D of myopic change. Decreases in LP reduce the myopic shifts that normally would be associated with increases in AL, and thus play a key role in refractive development in this age group.
