Abstract

Despite the much wider 95% prediction intervals provided by the authors compared to 95% confidence intervals we extracted from the BHVI calculator (~3x wider for both the 1- and 2-year follow-up data), the authors analysis highlights that individual refractive progression data for children (~10%-14%) can still fall outside the 95% prediction interval. Comparison between estimated and measured myopia progression in Hong Kong children without myopia control intervention. We agree with them, as stated in our original paper; "The graphical representation of myopia progression with and without an intervention can be a useful educational tool for eye care practitioners when discussing myopia management with patients and adult caregivers.".
