Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of childhood CORNEAL OPACITY on the anteroposterior length of the globe in adulthood.Methods: Twenty-three patients with significant unilateral CORNEAL OPACITY which had developed before the age of 6 years and the normal fellow eyes (controls) were evaluated. A comprehensive ocular examination including measurement of anterioposterior length and anterior chamber depth was performed.Results: Mean age was 65.9±12.9 years. Mean axial length was 25.45±2.47 mm in affected eyes vs 22.85±3.34 mm in normal fellow eyes (P=0.001). The difference in axial length was attributed to elongation of the vitreous cavity in affected eyes (18.91±2.82 vs 15.71±2.73 mm, P<0.001).Conclusion: CORNEAL OPACITY in childhood can result in AXIAL MYOPIA in adulthood due to elongation of the posterior segment.
