| Summary: |
Purpose: To
determine whether and how with-the-rule,
against-the-rule or oblique astigmatism influence the
creation of myopia.
Material and methods: A total of 167 people with
myopia (117 women and 50 men) of the age between 12 and
51, were examined. The overall average age was 24.
Routine ophthalmological examinations as well as
autorefractometry were carried out. The data was
analysed using the coefficients of rang Spearman's
correlation.
Results: It was found that with the rise of
with-the-rule astigmatism myopia increases (P<0.000001).
Any correlation between the people with low, medium, and
high myopia and the against-the-rule as well as oblique
astigmatism was not observed.
Conclusions: (1) With-the-rule astigmatism
predisposes the creation of myopia. (2) Against-the-rule
as well as oblique astigmatism has no influence on the
creation of myopia. |
