Purpose: Few studies have explored choroidal changes after cessation of myopia control. This study evaluated the choroidal thickness (ChT) and choroidal vascularity index (CVI) during and after discontinuing long-term low-concentration atropine eye drops use for myopia control.

Methods: Children with progressive myopia (6-16 years; n = 153) were randomized to receive 0.
