The monocular ocular accommodative responses of 118 emmetropic children, aged from 3 to 14 years, were measured at five different stimulus distances (0, 1, 2, 3, 4 D) from the principal plane of the eye with a Canon Autoref R‐1. The change in the accommodative response curve in emmetropic children between 3 and 14 years old was found to be negligible.
