Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Overall Changes of Cycloplegic Objective Refraction(spherical equivalent refraction, SER)(D)
Changes of cycloplegic objective refraction(i.e reflected by SER) from baseline till the 24th month (only the right-eye data included). Objective refraction data will be examined by AUTO REF/KERATOMETER. Ciliary muscle paralysis will be performed by using 1% cyclopentanone eye drops, 2 doses in each eye, 2 doses 5 minutes apart. The optometry will be performed after 20 minutes of complete ciliary muscle paralysis (disappearance of pupil response to light or pupil diameter at least greater than 6 mm). SER is calculated by adding the sum of the sphere power with half of the cylinder power. Baseline data will be measured at the time of enrollment. Follow-up data will be measured on the 24th month from baseline. The 24th month data will be subtracted from the baseline data to obtain changes.
From baseline till the 24th month
Secondary Outcomes (12)
Changes of Cycloplegic Objective Refraction(SER) (D)
The 6th month, the 12th month and the 18th month from baseline
Myopia
The 6th month, the 12th month, the 18th month and the 24th month from baseline
Changes of Axial Length(AL)(mm)
The 6th month, the 12th month, the 18th month and the 24th month from baseline
Amplitude of Accommodation (AMP)(D)
The 6th month, the 12th month, the 18th month and the 24th month from baseline
Uncorrected Visual Acuity
The 6th month, the 12th month, the 18th month and the 24th month from baseline
- +7 more secondary outcomes
