Subjects underwent examination under general anesthesia as part of their RB follow-up, which included evaluation by a single pediatric ophthalmologist. Cycloplegic retinoscopy was performed and keratometry data assessed with a handheld Retinomax K Plus 3 keratorefractometer (Righton Ophthalmic Instruments).Results: The study included 61 eyes of 37 subjects, with 18 (49%) males and 19 females. Seventeen eyes (28%) had hyperopia with spherical equivalent ≥3 D. Refractive astigmatism ≥1.5 D was present in 32% of all eyes. Nine (38%) subjects had anisometropia ≥2 D. Fifteen (63%) subjects had anisometropia ≥1 D.Conclusion: This study reports the high proportion of amblyogenic refractive risk factors in children with RB, both in RB-affected eyes and contralateral normal eyes.
