The study results were compared with 1021 age\u2010matched full\u2010term control children from a national survey.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> The eyes with laser\u2010treated ROP showed statistically significantly thicker lens (3.94 versus 3.39\u2003mm), steeper vertical corneal curvature (7.47 versus 7.67\u2003mm) and shallower anterior chamber depth (ACD) (2.91 versus 3.58\u2003mm) than age\u2010matched full\u2010term controls, but no difference in axial length (23.32 versus 23.24\u2003mm). The laser\u2010treated eyes had a mean spherical equivalent (SE) of \u22124.49\u2003D compared with mean SE of \u22120.44\u2003D in controls. Of 46 eyes studied, 93% of eyes were myopic and 28.3% with high myopia (&lt;\u22126.0\u2003D) compared with the 32% prevalence of myopia in controls. In preterm children, younger gestational age tended to correlate with shallower ACD (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.352) and thicker lens (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u2003\u22120.298); lower birth weight tended to correlate with shallower ACD (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.372) and steeper cornea (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2003=\u20030.360).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions:\u2002<\/jats:bold> There were higher prevalence and greater magnitude of myopia in preterm children. The significantly thicker lens, steeper corneal curvature and shallower anterior chamber depth are the major factors contributing to the development of myopia in preterm school children with laser\u2010treated threshold ROP.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/aos.12053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,20]],"date-time":"2013-04-20T06:33:49Z","timestamp":1366439629000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["Long\u2010term biometric optic components of diode laser\u2010treated threshold retinopathy of prematurity at 9\u2003years of age"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"91","author":[{"given":"Chang\u2010Sue","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"An\u2010Guor","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yung\u2010Feng","family":"Shih","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wen\u2010Ming","family":"Hsu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1167\/iovs.10-5234"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjo.84.2.138"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1984.01040030908011"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0161-6420(01)01015-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1990.01070040047029"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1994.01090190051021"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.119.8.1110"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjo.81.1.2"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"Prematurity and the eye","volume":"128","author":"Fledelius HC","year":"1976","journal-title":"Acta Ophthalmol Suppl"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0420.1996.tb00097.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1755-3768.2009.01707.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0002-9394(55)90548-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jaapos.2004.12.018"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archopht.1985.01050060045020"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0161-6420(86)33523-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2008-2697"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_1","first-page":"655","article-title":"Studies on ocular functions of cicatricial retinopathy of prematurity.
