ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES:
Tessellated fundus can exist in normal healthy eyes. This study aims to evaluate the occurrence and influencing factors of tessellated fundus in preschool children aged 3-6 years. SUBJECTS/METHODS:
This kindergarten-based cross-sectional study included 1716 children with an age range of 3-6 years. All participants underwent a comprehensive eye examination and a questionnaire. According to the number of quadrants occupied by tessellated fundus around the optic disc in fundus photographs, it was divided into four grades.RESULTS:
600 (35.0%) children had peripapillary tessellation. According to the spherical equivalent (SE), the subjects were divided into three groups Hyperopia group (SE > + 0.75D, n = 1194)ï¼Pre-myopia group (-0.50D < SE ≤ + 0.75D, n = 455); Myopia group (SE ≤ -0.50D, n = 67). The proportion of peripapillary tessellated fundus was 33.0%, 38.0%, 50.7% respectively. According to the regression analysis, in the non-myopia group (Pre-myopia group and Hyperopia group), the occurrence of peripapillary tessellated fundus was associated with longer axial length (OR, 1.566; 95% CI 1.229-1.996, p < 0.001) and larger corneal radius of curvature (OR, 1.837; 95% CI 1.006-3.354, p = 0.048). However, in Pre-myopia group, the corneal radius of curvature was not associated with the occurrence of peripapillary tessellated fundus (p = 0.830). In Hyperopia group, the corneal radius of curvature was associated with the occurrence of peripapillary tessellated fundus (OR, 2.438; 95% CI 1.160-5.122, p = 0.019).CONCLUSIONS:
The occurrence of peripapillary tessellated fundus is more than 30% in 3-6 year old preschool children. Tessellated fundus can also occur in non-myopic children, and is related to the length of axial length and large radius of corneal curvature.
