The goal of this study is to investigate the short-term changes in choroidal thickness and efficacy of the study spectacle lenses in children. Participants will be prescribed with a pair of study spectacle lenses for daily use and visit the clinic once every week for the first month for checkup and tests. After the first month of follow-up, participants will visit at 1 month, 6- and 12-month for checkup. Choroidal thickness, axial length and refractive errors will be monitored.
