[Nature or nurture: effects of parental ametropia on children's refractive errors].

Der Ophthalmologe : Zeitschrift der Deutschen Ophthalmologischen Gesellschaft - 1 Dec 2013

Landmann A, Bechrakis E

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to quantify the degree of association between juvenile refraction errors and parental refraction status. METHODS: Using a simple questionnaire we conducted a cross-sectional study to determine the prevalence and magnitudes of refractive errors and of parental refraction status in a sample (n=728) of 10- to 18-year-old Austrian grammar school students. RESULTS: Students with...
