The axial length cheat sheet.

One page, free, straight to your inbox — the numbers every parent should have on the fridge before the next eye exam.

The eye chart tells you today. Axial length tells you next year. This one-page cheat sheet gives you the five numbers that matter, so you can read any report in sixty seconds — and know which questions to ask.

What's on the page

1

Reference values by age

What axial length is typical at ages 4–15 — and when "normal for age" stops being reassuring.

2

The two warning values

The growth-rate line that separates "keep watching" from "act now" — and the 26mm line that changes the conversation entirely.

3

The three questions for your doctor

Exactly what to ask at the next visit so you leave with data, not vague reassurance.

4

The 30-20-10 rule card

The near-work habit from the book, printable — after every 30 minutes of near work, 6 meters away, for 10 minutes.
