What is the difference between axial myopia and diopter myopia?

Refractive myopia refers to refractive myopia. Myopia can be divided into axial myopia and refractive myopia according to refractive components. The differences between the two myopia are different.

1. Axial

myopia is a relatively common myopia. Generally, the curvature of cornea and lens is in the normal range, but the axial length of eye exceeds the normal range.

2. Refractive myopia

and refractive myopia are mainly due to the excessive curvature of cornea or lens, or the combination of refractive components produces abnormalities, resulting in refractive power beyond the normal range, and the axial length of eye is basically in the normal range.
