An open\u2010field auto\u2010refractor was used to measure on\u2010 and off\u2010axis refractions in primary gaze, with and without a CL, every 5\u00b0 out to 20\u00b0 horizontally in nasal and temporal retina. Results were analyzed as mean sphere (M) and astigmatic (J\n                      <jats:sub>0<\/jats:sub>\n                      and J\n                      <jats:sub>45<\/jats:sub>\n                      ) vector components. Partial coherence interferometry measures of eye size were also made on\u2010 and off\u2010axis at 10 and 20\u00b0 in nasal and temporal retina.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results.<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Subjects (mean age, 22 years; range, 20 to 26 years) had an average on\u2010axis spherical refractive error of \u22128.31 \u00b1 2.10 D and an average on\u2010axis eye length of 27.39 \u00b1 1.18 mm. Mean sphere exhibited a significant shift from hyperopic relative peripheral refraction (RPR) in the uncorrected state to myopic RPR on correction, in both nasal and temporal retina. Mean RPR of all subjects across all eccentricities was hyperopic when uncorrected (M = +0.20 \u00b1 0.49 D: mean \u00b1 1 SEM) becoming myopic when corrected (M = \u22120.45 \u00b1 0.56 D: p = 0.0003, reaching \u22121.21 \u00b1 0.82 D at 20\u00b0 in the temporal retina).

On\u2010 and off\u2010axis measures of eye length indicated a relatively prolate retinal contour. Uncorrected off\u2010axis mean sphere refractive error reduced with eccentricity, and this was accurately predicted (R\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      &gt; 0.98) by the measured retinal contour.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions.<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Correcting the foveal refractive error in high myopia with standard spherical soft CLs can result in significant absolute myopic defocus in the peripheral retina.
