The aims of the study were (1) to compare the accuracy and intrasession variability of noncycloplegic autorefraction (AR) obtained by a photorefractor and conventional and open-field autorefractors and (2) to evaluate the impact of accommodative and binocular vision anomalies on the accuracy of autorefraction. Twenty-nine children and adolescents aged 8–18 years were examined. All instruments gave more myopic results than subjective refraction (SR). Mean differences between the SR and the AR were +0.52/−0.25×96∘ for the photorefractor, +0.63/−0.31×93∘ for the conventional autorefractor, and +0.19/−0.26×94∘ for the open-field instrument. The photorefractor appeared to be the most repeatable. The impact of the examined vision anomalies on the accuracy of autorefraction was not statistically significant.
