Anterior chamber depth and angle and associations in a pediatric and adult population in Russia.

Purpose: To investigate the normative data of anterior chamber depth (ACD) and angle (ACA) and their associations in multiethnic cohorts spanning three generations in Russia.

Methods: The study cohort included the participants of three population-based studies performed in urban and rural Bashkortostan/Russia: The Ural Eye and Medical Study (UEMS; age:40+ years), Ural Children Eye Study (UCES; age:6-18 years), and Ural Very Old Study (UVOS; age:85+ years). Using Scheimflug camera-based anterior chamber imaging, we measured ACD and ACA as part of a comprehensive ophthalmological and systemic examination.

Associations between axial length, corneal refractive power and lens thickness in children and adolescents: The Ural Children Eye Study.

Purpose: To assess relationships between ocular biometric parameters in dependence of age and sex in children and adolescents.

Methods: In the Ural Children Eye Study, a school-based cohort study, 4933 children underwent an ophthalmological and general examination.

Results: Complete biometric measurements were available for 4406 (89.

Prevalence and associated factors of myopia in children and adolescents in Russia: the Ural Children Eye Study.

Background: To assess the prevalence of myopia and the distribution of ocular axial length as surrogate for myopic refractive error in school children in a population in Russia.

Methods: The Ural Children Eye Study, a school-based case-control study, was conducted in Ufa/Bashkortostan/Russia from 2019 to 2022 and included 4933 children (age: 9.7±2.
