NCT00000169

Brief Summary

To compare and contrast normal eye growth, ocular component development, and refractive error development in Hispanic, African-American, and Asian schoolchildren with what happens in Caucasian children from the Orinda Longitudinal Study of Myopia. To investigate risk factors for the development of myopia. To conduct DNA-based studies on nearsighted children and their families.
