About this trial
To explore the minimum power and frequency of Repeated Low-level Red-light (RLRL) to control myopia progression in low-myopic children aged 8-10 years, and the rebound effect of low-myopic children after discontinuation of RLRL with different combinations of power and frequency.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Age: 8-10 years old
Low myopia: cycloplegic spherical equivalent refractions (SERs) range from -0.50 (inclusive) to -3.00 diopters (D) and astigmatism less than -2.5 D in either eye.
signed informed consent and was able to participate in the study
Disqualifiers
Secondary myopia, such as a history of retinopathy of prematurity or other neonatal diseases; syndromic myopia with a known genetic disorder or connective tissue disease, such as Stickler syndrome or Marfan syndrome
Strabismus or other binocular vision abnormalities
Cloudy refractive media: cloudy cornea, cataract or intraocular lens surgery
Eye diseases that affect retinal function: macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal detachment, glaucoma or ocular hypertension, endophthalmitis, uveitis, optic neuropathy, etc.
