Abstract
This study researched the correlation between myopic refractive errors and intraocular pressure. The study population comprised 39 adults(17 of males, 22 of females). We measured the intraocular pressure using a Non-Contact Tonometer(NCT) and the correlation between myopic refractive errors was analyzed by dividing into three groups: mild, moderate, high myopia. The gender of subjects showed no statistically difference between the intraocular pressure and refractive errors, but as the refractive errors increased, the intraocular pressure incereased, which showed a statistically significant difference. In addition, the higher intraocular pressure in moderate and high myopia than mild myopia can cause glaucoma, that can develop at a young age. it is need to sufficient recognition and understanding correlation between intraocular pressure and myopic refractive errors in the middle-aged high myopia.
