Abstract

Statistically significant worsening of myopia progression was observed in children after COVID-19 home confinement. Elementary school age children demonstrated the greatest increase in myopia prevalence. Low myopia patients demonstrated the greatest change in mean spherical equivalent. Using handheld swept source optical coherence tomography, markers of foveal immaturity, including shallower foveal angle, higher inner retinal fovea/parafovea ratio, and larger retinal cross-sectional area, were associated with more severe retinopathy of prematurity. This study proposes a standard framework to assess quality of OCT images of the lacrimal gland, highlighting the impact of dry eye disease and intraocular pressure on image quality. Conjunctival flap surgery followed by staged …
