In a population of 19,686 people (39.5% M and 60.5% F) who met the criteria, there was a prevalence of astigmatism 42% (12% only astigmatism, 30% associated with hyperopia or myopia), myopia 25%, hyperopia 22% and 24% presbyopic prescriptions for the medium and near distance. The myopia progression study (mean spherical equivalent) indicates that 20% of people had no change, 42% had an increase in myopic correction from 0.25D to 0.50D, 17% from 0.75D to 1.00D, 11% from 1.25D to 1.50D, 5% from 1.75D to 2.00D and 5% of the population had myopic progression greater than 2.00D.展开更多
