Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: The following eligibility criteria exist for this trial: Mainland Chinese, the Han nationality. Age at enrolment: 6–12 years old. Cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (SER): -1.00 to -4.00 diopters (D). SER is calculated as the sphere plus 0.5 x the cylinder, in diopters (D). (Recommended dosage for cycloplegic refraction is 2 drops of 1% tropicamide given 5 minutes separately. Cycloplegic refraction outcome measures should be performed 30-45 minutes after the first drop of tropicamide is instilled, which ensure the maximal cycloplegic effect.) Astigmatism:1.50 D or less. Anisometropia: 1.50 D or less. The difference of pupil between eyes of 2 mm or less. Monocular best corrected visual acuity (BCVA): 20/20 (0.0 logMAR) or better (LogMar chart). Willingness to wear spectacle lenses regularly. Acceptance of random group allocation and the masked study design.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Strabismus: checked by cover test at far and near. Any ocular and systemic diseases, including abnormalities might affect visual functions or refractive development. Previous experience of myopia control, including orthokeratology, progressive addition lenses, bifocal lenses, pharmaceutical treatment (e.g. atropine), etc.
