Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Pediatrics
  • Human Growth and Development

Background:

  • School-age children face increasing visual demands.
  • Rapid physical and mental development impacts eye health.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the relationship between refractive errors and body height in children.
  • Analyze myopia prevalence across different height percentiles.

Main Methods:

  • 1,696 children aged 7-14 years were assessed.
  • Static retinoscopy determined refractive errors (spherical equivalent).
  • Height, age, sex, and visual acuity were recorded.

Main Results:

  • Myopia prevalence increased with body height (39.2% to 58.0%).

  • Regression analysis confirmed a significant positive correlation between height and myopia (p < 0.001).
  • Most myopia cases were low to moderate.

    • Conclusions:

    • Childhood myopia prevalence rises with increasing body height.
    • Low and moderate myopia are more common than high myopia in this age group.
