- Title
Variability of retinal steepness at the posterior pole in children 7-15 years of age.

- Abstract
Considerable evidence suggests that both axial and peripheral refraction play important roles in eye growth control. The large variability in peripheral refraction seen in adults and children indicates that the peripheral retina is exposed to a wide range of refractive errors. The current lack of appropriate measurement techniques has hampered the determination of whether variability in peripheral refraction between individuals can be correlated with variability in retinal steepness. An Optical Low Coherence Reflectometer (OLCR) was developed to determine retinal steepness.
