Article Synopsis
- The study investigated factors linked to myopia progression and axial elongation in children with myopia.
- It analyzed data from a trial comparing atropine treatment with a placebo, focusing on children aged 5 to <13 with specific refractive errors and other characteristics.
- Results showed that younger children and those with higher initial myopia experienced more significant changes in refractive error and axial length, highlighting the need for treatments to slow progression in this at-risk group.
Importance: Controlling myopia progression is of interest worldwide. Low-dose atropine eye drops have slowed progression in children in East Asia.
Objective: To compare atropine, 0.
Purpose: It has been suggested that children perceptually adapt to changes in retinal image size in the presence of anisometropia and therefore do not display clinically significant aniseikonia. However, given that early methods of eikonometry were not child-friendly, the prevalence of this condition in children is poorly understood. Retinal image size differences may be relevant in the discussion of amblyogenesis.
