  • Furthermore, vision screening can detect moderate to high hyperopia, which has been found to be associated with poor school readiness. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Photo-screening in preschools would reach the most children, but at the cost of missing hyperopia (farsightedness). (biomedcentral.com)
  • Photoscreening is exquisitely capable of detecting the most common and the most treatable amblyopia risk factors, such as insufficiently accommodated hyperopia or farsightedness," Dr. Arnold noted. (medscape.com)
  • Hyperopia is the most frequently occurring refractive error in young children, with a prevalence in preschool children of up to 12% for ≥+3.00 diopters (D), depending on the population and definition of hyperopia used. (entokey.com)
  • Based on population estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau and the prevalence of moderate hyperopia, an estimated 550 000 to 1.7 million preschool children each year are expected to have hyperopia of at least +3.00 D in the U.S. (entokey.com)
  • The association between moderate hyperopia and the presence of ocular conditions such as amblyopia or strabismus has been documented previously for young children. (entokey.com)
  • The additional accommodative effort associated with uncorrected hyperopia and the resultant accommodative convergence places these children at an increased risk for esotropia, with the risk increasing with the magnitude of hyperopia. (entokey.com)
  • Hyperopic children are also at an increased risk for development of unilateral or bilateral amblyopia or reduced visual acuity (VA) that is dependent on the magnitude of the hyperopia. (entokey.com)
  • Even in the absence of esotropia or amblyopia, preschool children with greater than 3.25 D of uncorrected hyperopia have been shown to have an increased risk for other vision disorders, including anisometropia, astigmatism, and reduced stereoacuity, the latter worsening with higher magnitudes of hyperopia. (entokey.com)
  • Children with moderate to high amounts of uncorrected hyperopia may show differences in accommodative convergence-to-accommodation (AC/A) ratios. (entokey.com)
  • This represents less accurate accommodative responses (increased lag of accommodation) and an increase in variability of accommodative effort to maintain clarity for distance and near viewing compared to children with lower magnitudes of hyperopia or emmetropia. (entokey.com)

  • Persons with anisometropia (both eyes have different refractive power), high hyperopia with or without nystagmus (eyes move rapidly and uncontrollably), and hypermetropia with accommodative esotropia (a condition in which both the eyes turn inward) are prescribed for spectacles and contact lenses. (diseasefix.com)
  • Longsightedness (hyperopia) which affects about 25-30% of the population occurs when either the eye ball is too short or the curve on the front of the eye (cornea) is too flat, preventing the light from forming a focus on the back of the eye (retina). (mccrystalopticians.com)
  • Children with moderate levels of hyperopia often go undetected as they have excellent distance and near vision. (mccrystalopticians.com)
  • Farsightedness (hyperopia) results when structural defects in the eye cause your vision to be blurry. (keywhitman.com)
  • This work suggested that the causal relationship between refractive error and educational attainment was nonlinear but found no evidence that moderate hyperopia caused a major deficit in educational attainment. (arvojournals.org)
  • Importantly, however, because statistical power was limited and some participants with moderate hyperopia would have worn spectacles as children, modest adverse effects may have gone undetected. (arvojournals.org)
  • These findings suggest that moderate hyperopia does not cause a major deficit in educational attainment. (arvojournals.org)
  • 2 Children with hyperopia are prescribed spectacles either to provide clear vision as their accommodation is not effective enough to compensate for their hyperopia or to alleviate their eyestrain symptoms. (arvojournals.org)
  • Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) suggest that prescribing spectacles to 7- to 11-month-old infants with hyperopia of +3.50 D or more reduces the risk of strabismus and amblyopia. (arvojournals.org)
  • 6 - 8 However, there is no consensus on whether prescribing spectacles to asymptomatic school-age children for lower levels of hyperopia improves their reading performance or educational attainment. (arvojournals.org)
