Prevalence, incidence, and progression of myopia of school children in Hong Kong.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:To determine the prevalence, incidence, and progression of myopia of Chinese children in Hong Kong. METHODS:A cross-sectional survey was initially conducted. A longitudinal follow-up study was then conducted 12 months later. RESULTS:A total of 7560 children of mean age 9.33 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 9.11-9.45; range, 5-16) participated in the study. Mean spherical equivalent refraction (SER) was -0.33 D (SD = 11.56; range, -13.13 to +14.25 D). Myopia (SER
