Baseline factors associated with myopia progression and axial elongation over 30 months in children 5 to 12 years of age
Younger children with higher myopia had greater myopic progression and axial elongation over 30 months than older children with lower myopia. Developing effective treatments to slow the faster myopic progression in younger children should be a target of further research.
