ABSTRACT
Purpose:
To investigate changes in peripheral eye length (PEL) and peripheral refraction (PR) in myopic children after wearing spectacle lenses with highly or slightly aspherical lenslets (HAL or SAL) for 2 years.Methods:
We recruited 170 children aged 8 to 13 years with myopia between -0.75 diopters (D) and -4.75 D. Participants were randomized to wear HAL, SAL, or single vision spectacle lenses (SVL). PEL and PR were measured at 0° central and 15° and 30° in the nasal and temporal retina every 6 months for 2 years. The relative PR (RPR) was calculated by subtracting central from peripheral values.Results:
PELs significantly increased with time (all P < 0.001), with the greatest elongation in the SVL group and the least in the HAL group. In the SVL and SAL groups, axial length elongated faster than the periphery. Whereas in the HAL group, N30 elongated faster than other PELs, axial length elongated less than the periphery. With time, the PR became more negative (all P < 0.001), with the most negative changes in the SVL group and the least negative changes in the HAL group. RPR became more hyperopic in the SVL and SAL groups, but less hyperopic in the HAL group (all P < 0.001).Conclusions:
Over the 2-year myopia progression, steeper retina and greater peripheral hyperopic defocus were found in the SVL group. In the SAL group, changes were attenuated. In the HAL group, the retina flattened and peripheral defocus became less hyperopic. Translational Relevance HAL and SAL lenses had little impact on PEL elongation.
