Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: • Children and adolescents for whom the decision was already made for treatment with 0.01% atropine based on their individual situation (eye length, observed myopia progression) and after thorough information discussion about the special status of the myopia. Determining indications for treatment and general consultation will be based on the recommendations of the scientific medical societies. • Age 6-17 years • Myopia progression of at least 0.5 dpt in the last 12 months in at least on eye • Myopia below 4.0 dpt • Written consent of at least one legal guardian and assent of the subject Are the trial subjects under 18? yes Number of subjects for this age range: 30 F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) no F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) no F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: • Anisometropia > 1.0 dpt. • Astigmatism > 1.5 Dpt. • Best corrected vision < 0.8 • Eye diseases other than myopia, in particular changes of the conjunctiva, scarring of the cornea and diseases of the anterior segment of the eye • Known intolerance of atropine eye drops • Participation in another clinical trial within the last 30 days
