Abstract
Four annual studies of the visual ocular components of approximately 40 male and 40 female chimpanzees are summarized and discussed. In general, ocular changes over the five-year span are similar to those found in human subjects under similar conditions except for changes in the corneas, which show changes not usually found in humans. Approximately a third of the subjects show increased axial lengths and myopia. Females show higher levels of myopia than males.Keywords
