|
By Krystal L Schulle, Loraine T. Sinnott, Danielle Orr, Rachel Fenton
| Wiley Online Library Verified
Over the study period, there was more than a fivefold increase in vitreous or peripheral retinal findings and a more than double increase in any retinal findings in young myopic children. There were no differences in the number of findings between those children with more or less myopic progression or between those with more or less axial elongation. Myopic children warrant routine dilation and close follow-up to monitor for retinal changes regardless of age and amount of myopia.
