Long-term refractive outcomes in children with early diagnosis of moderate to high hyperopia.

Conclusion: In our study, children with moderate to high hyperopia did not experience a significant reduction in the power of the refractive error. Although almost 50% of children had an initial deviation, only one had amblyopia at the end of follow-up. Implementing screening strategies for the early detection of this refractive error may prevent long-term vision morbidity in hyperopic children. PMID: 32316817 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
