Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change in lag of accommodation assessed by open-field autorefractor from baseline visit at 6 months after 12 weekly vision therapies
We will measure the lag of accommodation objectively in right eye at 33 cm by using open-field autorefractor. An average of 10 static measurements will be recorded in spherical equivalent dioptric power.
Baseline visit, 7th visit(7 weeks after BL), 13th visit (13 weeks after BL), 14th visit(9months after BL, which is also 6months after vision therapies )
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Change in accommodative amplitude assessed by push-up technique from baseline visit at 6 months after 12 weekly vision therapies
Baseline visit, 7th visit(7 weeks after BL), 13th visit (13 weeks after BL), 14th visit(9months after BL, which is also 6months after vision therapies )
Change in accommodative variability assessed by open-field autorefractor from baseline visit at 6 months after 12 weekly vision therapies
Baseline visit, 7th visit(7 weeks after BL), 13th visit (13 weeks after BL), 14th visit(9months after BL, which is also 6months after vision therapies )
Change in accommodative facility assessed by flipper bar method from baseline visit at 6 months after 12 weekly vision therapies
Baseline visit, 7th visit(7 weeks after BL), 13th visit (13 weeks after BL), 14th visit(9months after BL, which is also 6months after vision therapies )

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Subjects enrolled in the trial must:
- be within the age range of 8 to 12 years old inclusive;
- d to -4.50dspherical equivalent by cycloplegic autorefraction in both eyes
- astigmatism≤1.5d in both eyes;
- anisometropia≤1.0d;
- accommodation lag at near(33cm)in right eye by non-cycloplegic auto- refraction ≧1d;
- have vision correctable to at least 0.8 or better in each eye.
You may not qualify if:
- Subjects enrolled in the trial must NOT have:
- current or prior use of progressive addition lens, bifocals, or contact lenses in either eye( prior or current use of single vision lens allowed);
- history of any of the following functional defects: strabismus, amblyopia, nystagmus;
- history of diabetes or seizures;
- history of any ocular systemic, or neuro-developmental condition that might influence refractive development;
- use of ocular or systemic medications known to affect accommodation, such as atropine, pirenzepine, and anti-epileptic medications in recent 3 months;
- history of any ocular surgery that might influence refractive development;
- developmental disability, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), or learning disability diagnosis in children that in the investigator's discretion would interfere with office-based treatment;
- relocation anticipated for 3 years;
- birth weight lower than 1250 grams(2lbs,12oz);
- siblings in the study.
