The impacts of social restrictions for COVID-19 on children's vision and lifestyle remain unknown.To investigate myopia incidence, spherical equivalent refraction (SER) changes among schoolchildren during the pandemic.Two separate longitudinal cohorts children aged 6-8 years in Hong Kong were included. cohort was recruited at beginning outbreak, whereas pre-COVID-19 before pandemic. All received ocular examinations, answered a standardised questionnaire relating to their lifestyle, including...
<h3>Importance</h3> Early onset of myopia is associated with high later in life, and irreversible once developed. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate the efficacy low-concentration atropine eyedrops at 0.05% 0.01% concentration for delaying myopia. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-masked trial conducted Chinese University Hong Kong Eye Centre enrolled 474 nonmyopic children aged 4 through 9 years cycloplegic spherical equivalent between +1.00 D to...
BackgroundSpectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) can be used to detect glaucomatous optic neuropathy, but human expertise in interpretation of SDOCT is limited. We aimed develop and validate a three-dimensional (3D) deep-learning system using volumes neuropathy.MethodsWe retrospectively collected dataset including 4877 disc cube for training (60%), testing (20%), primary validation (20%) from electronic medical research records at the Chinese University Hong Kong Eye Centre...
To determine the myopia prevalence in Hong Kong Chinese children and their parents.It was a population-based cross-sectional study. A total of 4257 aged 6-8 years, 5880 parents were recruited Children Eye Study. Cycloplegic autorefraction measured for children; non-cycloplegic parents. Parental educational level, children's outdoor time, near work collected by validated questionnaires.In 25.0% myopic, among them, 12.7% 6-year-olds, 24.4% 7-year-olds 36.1% 8-year-old. About 0.7% 8 years high...
Abstract Myopia, currently at epidemic levels in East Asia, is a leading cause of untreatable visual impairment. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) adults have identified 39 loci associated with refractive error and myopia. Here, the age-of-onset between genetic variants these was investigated 5200 children assessed longitudinally across ages 7–15 years, along gene-environment interactions involving major environmental risk-factors, nearwork time outdoors. Specific could be categorized...
Importance Childhood myopia increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. Limited evidence exists about whether development was reversed or worsened after lockdown. Objective To determine prevalence of and its associated factors before, during, restrictions. Design, Setting, Participants This population-based, repeated cross-sectional study evaluated children aged 6 to 8 years from Hong Kong Children Eye Study between 2015 2021 in 3 cohorts: before (2015-2019), restrictions (2020), were lifted...
Importance Astigmatism can cause blurred vision at near and distance. It is common among schoolchildren associated with ametropia. Although the COVID-19 pandemic generated a surge in myopia prevalence children, association child astigmatism remains unknown. Objective To report of refractive corneal from 2015 to 2023 explore associations between astigmatism. Design, Setting, Participants This population-based cross-sectional study stratified all primary schools registered Education Bureau...
<b>Background:</b> Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) is regarded as rare in people of Chinese ethnicity but the prevalence this condition not known. This epidemiology study was conducted to assess PXS cataract patients and report clinical features present. <b>Methods:</b> Prospective descriptive period from March 1999 May 2001 ophthalmology departments cluster hospitals serving a population about 1.2 million. 500 consecutive aged 60 or above attending general ophthalmic clinics with presumed...
