“…The age groups were: 0 to <6 months, 6 to <12 months, 12 to <24 months, 2 to <3 years, 3 to <4 years, 4 to <6 years, 6 to <8 years, 8 to <10 years, 10 to <13 years, and 13 to <18 years. Age groups were used to define recruitment goals and guarantee a greater number of subjects in the age range at which CCT was suspected to be most rapidly changing, based on results of previous studies of CCT in children, 7,9 but the age groups were not used in analyses; age was analyzed as a continuous factor.…”

“…6 Dai reported similar CCT values in Hispanic and white children, but thinner CCT in African-American children. 7 This report was also limited in that most subjects were older than 5 years of age.…”

“…(16) A influência da idade na ECC não é clara. Day e Gunderson (17) não encontraram diferença na ECC entre um grupo de crianças mais jovens com 2 anos de idade e um grupo com 18 anos de idade. Neste estudo, no grupo controle e no grupo pseudofácico (média de idade de 7 anos) não houve correlação significativa entre os valores de ECC, PIO e idade.…”

“…1,2 Studies carried out in children of different races and ethnic groups have revealed a much lower CCT in the African-American child. [2][3][4] Data in this area from Cameroon in particular and in the whole of Sub-Saharan Africa in general are limited. The purpose of this study was to determine average CCT in black Cameroonian children aged 5-16 years, while taking note of any differences in CCT according to gender and age.…”

“…The lowest value of three measurements was assumed to be the most representative of the ultrasound probe, placed perpendicular to the central corneal surface, in accordance with the methodology used in previous studies on CCT variations in children. 2,4 Three measurements of intraocular pressure were also taken using a noncontact tonometer, and the average value was recorded for each eye, which enabled potential cases of glaucoma and ocular hypertonia to be excluded from the study. Therefore, intraocular pressure was not statistically analyzed in this study.…”
