  1. The parameters are expressed as mean and SD. There is no difference between emmetropic and mild myopic PPG, while all the parameters analyzed are statistically significant in comparison between emmetropes and high myopic PPG, and between mild and high myopic PPG. P-values significant for p < 0.05
