Abstract

Introduction: A number of papers have reported an association between diet and myopia. This study compared the nutritional intake and some simple body measurements in a group of CHILDREN who were MYOPIC to those of a group, who were not MYOPIC. Materials and Methods: The nutritional data for 169 subjects who developed myopia between the ages of 7 and 9 years were compared with data for 180 subjects who were not MYOPIC. Dietary intake was assessed by a semiquantitative 67-item food frequency questionnaire. T-test was used for data analysis.Results: Weight, height and BMI were 31.6±8.1 (mean±SD), 132.3±7.5 and 17.8±3.2, respectively of the MYOPIC CHILDREN 54 (54%), and of the controls, 45 (45.5%) were overweight. CHILDREN who developed myopia had a generally higher intake of many of the food components than CHILDREN who were not MYOPIC. Differences were statistically significant for energy intake, protein, fat, and carbohydrate (p<0.05). MYOPIC CHILDREN consumed more sugar, fruit, rice, pasta, egg, dry fruit and snackes than did the subjects who were not MYOPIC (p<0.05).Conclusions: CHILDREN with myopia were more obese than the control group and consumed high carbohydrate foods such as pasta, sugar and dry fruits.
