From 2 senior-high and 2 vocational schools in Taipei, 3251 children with age 16-19 were randomly selected to study the relationship between ocular refraction and its main optical components, corneal curvature and axial length. While the corneal curvature was found to play only a minor role in the determination of ocular refraction, the measurements of axial length parallelled the degree of myopia (r = 0.74). A two-years' longitudinal study of additional 411 children from one junior-high school (age 13 through 15) further pointed to the importance of axial length in the production and progression of myopia.
从台北市的2所高中和2所职业学校中，随机抽取了3251名年龄在16至19岁之间的儿童，以研究眼屈光与其主要光学成分（角膜曲率和眼轴长度）之间的关系。虽然发现角膜曲率在眼屈光的测定中仅起次要作用，但眼轴长度的测量结果与近视程度平行（r = 0.74）。对另一所初中的411名儿童（年龄在13至15岁之间）进行的为期两年的纵向研究进一步表明了眼轴长度在近视发生和发展中的重要性。
