Values in brackets are 95% confidence intervals. Samples sizes were: 9 year-olds visit (n = 1277); 13 year-olds visit (n = 1649).

Abbreviations: Incremental R2 = Variance in refractive error explained by PGS; AUROC = Area under the receiver operating characteristics curve; HM5 = High myopia (≤−5.00 D); HM6 = High myopia (≤−6.00 D).
