Key Points

Longer axial length correlates with increased refractive error in myopic adults, and is particularly observed in females.
The study found a notable connection between changes in axial length and refractive error across different ranges.
Observational analysis of adult eye characteristics highlights variations in axial length according to refractive status.
These findings suggest the need for further investigation into eye health strategies for myopic individuals.

Implication

Observational analysis shows longer axial length in myopic adults, indicating potential anterior segment compensation.

Abstract

AL closely tracks refractive status with range-dependent coupling. Females show longer AL without SE shifts, implying anterior segment compensation.
