AIM: The aim of the study was to determine whether ocular movement can affect the shape of the globe and lead to measurable change in axial and peripheral eye length.
METHODS: Ten subjects aged 18-30 years (6 M/4 F) participated with informed consent. The mean spherical equivalent refractive error was ≤-1.00 DS with cylindrical refraction <-1.25 DC. One drop of tropicamide hydrochloride 1% was instilled 20 min before measurement to induce mydriasis and mild cycloplegia. Using IOLMaster, eye length was measured centrally and temporally (25° off-axis) in four different positions. Subjects then rotated their eyes 25° in the temporal direction to fixate on a target for 10 min. After that, the same measurements were repeated.
RESULTS: Before rotation, the group mean peripheral eye length was significantly shorter than the central eye length (P < 0.05). There was no significant variation in central or peripheral eye length due to off-axis fixation, either after the initial eye rotation or after fixation for 10 min at the off-axis point. The difference between central and peripheral eye lengths was maintained after 10 min of temporal fixation (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Peripheral eye length was shorter than central eye length showing the prolate shape associated with myopia. The action of the extraocular muscles on the globe has no significant effect upon the retinal shape assessed by off-axis eye length measurement in myopic subjects.
