Eligibility Criteria

Age6 Years - 12 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17)

You may qualify if:

  • Child (female or male) aged 6 to 12 years.
  • Myopia (SER of at least -0.50 D and no more myopic than -6.00 D) in each eye as measuredby cycloplegic autorefraction.
  • If present, astigmatism of ≤1.50 D in each eye as measured by cycloplegic autorefraction.
  • Anisometropia SER of \< 1.50 D as measured by cycloplegic autorefraction.

You may not qualify if:

  • Have used other myopia control methods other than those used in this study, such as instruments (orthokeratology lenses, multifocal glasses, progressive glasses), drugs (atropine, etc.); Only single vision glasses are allowed for myopia correction;
  • Have used myopic control methods such as traditional Chinese medicine, auricular acupuncture, massage, and reverse beat within 30 days before screening;
  • Use of any local or systemic antimuscarinic/anticholinergic medication (e.g., atropine, scopolamine, tropicamide, phenamine, diphenhydramine, oxytropine, tricyclic antidepressant, etc.) within 21 days before screening; Allowing for tests such as cycloplegic optometry;
