Near Point of Convergence in Iranian Schoolchildren: Normative Values and Associated Factors.
CONCLUSION: Mean NPC in 6-12-year-old Iranian children was 8.08 cm, which is worse than values reported in previous studies. Mean NPC showed a slight recession with age. Myopic schoolchildren had the least remote and hyperopes had the most remote NPC values. More remote values of NPA were associated with receded NPC.
