The rate of myopia in high school was 84.0% (90.2% in key high school and 85.1% in general high school with significant difference between them). The rate of myopia in middle school was 78.2% (78.5% in key middle school and 77.9% in general high school without significant difference between them). The myopia rate of high school was higher than that of middle school (P<0.001). In high school, the myopia rate of girls (86.8%) was higher than that of boys (80.8%) (P<0.001).
