Abstract:
Refractive error is a common ophthalmic disease in children. It refers to the mismatch between the axial length and the refractive power that results in visual blur, which is usually driven by the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. The impacts of pregnancy and puerperium-related factors on refractive error in children have gradually gained attention. According to the different stages of pregnancy, this review summarizes the impacts of four aspects on refractive error in children, including lifestyle during pregnancy, complications and comorbidities during pregnancy, adverse pregnancy outcomes and other factors, which aims to provide perinatal healthcare clues for the prevention and control of refractive error in children, achieve prevention beforehand and reduce the public health burden of refractive error in children.
