Impact of Astigmatism on Axial Elongation in School-Age Children: A Five-Year Population-Based Study in Tianjin, China
Both baseline magnitude and axis orientation of astigmatism are significantly associated with axial elongation in children. However, these associations may vary with spherical ametropia, with differential patterns being observed between compound hyperopic and myopic eyes.
