Abstract. Purpose:To report changes in components of refraction in school-age children during one year. Cases and Method:This study was made on 966 eyes of patients who visited us for ametropia. The series comprised 431 male and 535 female eyes. The age ranged from 5 to 18 years. Each eye was examined for axial length,corneal refraction and refraction of crystalline lens. The values were compared with those one year later. Axial length was measured by IOLMasterTM. Results:Refraction of crystalline lens decreased one year later throughout the ages. Amount of change in lens refraction decreased along with advance in age. Corneal refraction was poorly correlated with total power of refraction. Increase in axial length decreased along with advance in age. Children aged 11 years showed greatest changes in refraction towards myopia due to increase in axial length. Conclusion:Children around 11 years of age show progression of myopia due to increase in axial length.
