AB  - PURPOSE: To investigate, through Heidelberg retina tomography II (HRT II) and 
      RTVue-100 optical coherence tomography (OCT), normal parameters of the optic 
      nerve head (ONH) in highly hyperopic children, and compare these with a group of 
      children with low hyperopia and emmetropia, as fundus examination of highly 
      hyperopic children often shows crowding of the optic disc, which may be difficult 
      to distinguish from mild optic disc swelling. PATIENTS AND METHODS: ONH of the 
      higher hyperopic eye was examined with HRT II and the peripapillary nerve fiber 
      layer (RNFL) with RTVue-100, in 6 to 15-year-old full-term children with normal 
      visual acuity and spherical equivalent >/= + 3.0 D (hyperopic group) and < + 3.0 to 
      - 1.0 D (emmetropic group). RESULTS: Thirty highly hyperopic children and 33 
      emmetropic controls had a mean spherical equivalent of + 5.1 +/- 1.5 D and a mean 
      age of 8.4 +/- 2.8 years, and + 1.0 +/- 1.2 D and 9.6 +/- 2.6 years, respectively. 
      There was no significant difference in OCT-assessed RNFL thickness between the 
      two groups. Compared to the emmetropic group, following HRT parameters were 
      significantly smaller in the hyperopic group: Disc area (1.41 vs. 1.68 mm(2), 
      p = 0.023), cup area (0.19 vs. 0.37 mm(2), p = 0.0001), cup volume (0.03 vs. 
      0.08 mm(3), p = 0.02), cup/disc area (0.13 vs. 0.20, p = 0.006), linear cup/disc 
      (0.33 vs. 0.42, p = 0.004), and mean cup depth (0.13 vs. 0.17 mm, p = 0.019). 
      CONCLUSION: In children, ONH of highly hyperopic eyes are smaller than those of 
      emmetropic eyes. RNFL thickness and neural rim volume are similar to emmetropic 
      eyes. They can therefore appear more crowded.
