Figure 6
(a) All refractive changes are presented. Refractive changes of less than 3 dioptres are considered undergrowth, refractive changes between 3 and 6 dioptres are considered normal growth and refractive changes of more than 6 dioptres are considered overgrowth. The majority of our patients (54 eyes, 84.4%) exhibited normal refractive development following initial stage blindness. (b) A normal distribution of the monocular grating acuity was referenced to evaluate our participants’ VA. Our subjects showed improvements observed in VA and the mean acuity of our patients was below the normal mean and fell outside 95% prediction limits from approximately 2 years of age.
