[The physical and clinical eye refraction of preschoolers and young schoolchildren].
Physical and clinical eye refraction was studied in 608 children aged from 3 to 12 years. The formation of refraction of the eye at the time of its growth is based on correlative connexions between anatomo-optic parameters and between refractive media themselves. Spherical and astigmatic refraction are determined by refractive media having, in their most part, astigmatism. In the period of the growth of the eye, its physical and clinical refraction changes. To prevent a fall of visual functions and disturbances in the musculo-accommodative system of the eye, early optic correction of ametropia is recommended and, if indicated, pleoptic-orthoptic treatment.
