After applying the exclusion criteria (having eye disease or history of ocular surgery), final analyses were performed on data of 160 608 cases whose mean age was 39.2 \u00b1 15.4 years (10\u201380 years) and 53.7% female. All subjects had autorefraction, retinoscopy, and subjective refraction data. Rule similarity was categorised as isorule (with, against or oblique astigmatism) if the orientation type in fellow eyes was the same and anisorule if they were different.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The prevalence of isorule astigmatism was 82.9% and was similar in men and women (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 0.44).

The median of the absolute inter\u2010ocular axis difference from exact symmetry was 10\u00b0 under the mirror symmetry model (mirror axes). Under the direct symmetry model (equal axes), the median of the absolute inter\u2010ocular axis difference was significantly higher, at 20\u00b0 (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001). 16.4% and 10.8% had exact mirror and direct symmetry, respectively.
