Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To study the connection between parental myopia and their children's myopia from school age to adulthood. METHODS: Two hundred and forty myopic schoolchildren (119 boys, 121 girls, mean age 10.9 years) with no previous spectacles for myopia were recruited to a 3-year treatment trial with different use of spectacles. Follow-ups were performed at mean ages of 13.9, 23.7 and 33.2 years for 238, 176 and 170...
