Introduction
Comp.AL usually refers to axial length, with a normal range of 22.05–24.75 mm in adult males and 21.25–24.8 mm in adult females. Axial length is a parameter measured during ultrasound examination of the eye and orbit, reflecting ocular growth. It typically denotes the anteroposterior diameter of the eye, specifically the distance from the corneal apex to the macula.
Comp.AL usually refers to axial length of the eye. The normal range is 22.05–24.75 mm for adult males and 21.25–24.8 mm for adult females. Detailed analysis is as follows:
The axial length of the eye is a measurement obtained during ultrasound examination of the eyeball and orbit, reflecting the growth status of the eye. It typically refers to the anterior-posterior diameter of the eyeball—the distance from the corneal apex to the macula. The normal range of axial length varies with gender and age. For adult males, the normal range is generally 22.05–24.75 mm; for adult females, it is approximately 21.25–24.8 mm. Children are in a critical period of growth and development, so there is no fixed normal value; as long as no abnormalities are present, the measurement is considered normal. Generally, abnormal axial length may be associated with conditions such as myopia, hyperopia, or glaucoma, and timely medical evaluation at a hospital is recommended.
Patients are advised to seek prompt medical attention when experiencing discomfort and to undergo standardized treatment under the guidance of a physician, which can facilitate recovery.
