The long-term outcome of the refractive error in children with hypermetropia.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the long-term outcome of high hypermetropic refractive errors in childhood.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed data from the clinical records of 164 children with spherical equivalent (SE) hypermetropic refractive errors in three medical centers collected over 29 years. Refractive errors between +1.
