Brief summary
This study is for testing the efficacy and safety of distance-image screens for preventing myopia in children for 12 month. Each subjects would be asked to paired test the ocular parameters between before and after 12-month distance-image screens.
Detailed description
This study is for testing the efficacy and safety of distance-image screens intended usage for preventing myopia in children with reading after a 6-meter-distant-image device. It was a prospective study. The investigators would like to recruit 100 volunteers, aged 6 years 16 in Beijing. All the volunteers will be complete examined their ocular parameters before using the distant-image screen in a random order for at least 2 hours daily for 12 month. The changes of ocular axial length and refractive error were both calculated before and after 12-month usage for paired t-test.
Interventions
Distance-image screen is a screen make each image at distance of 6-meters to reduce the accommodation and convergence for eyes during the reading and learning with screens.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Changes of ocular axial length (mm) | 12-month | IntraOcularLens (IOL) master biometry will exam each eye before the testing and after the testing with distance-image screen |
| Changes of refractive error (D) | 12-month | Cycloplegic refraction with autorefractor will test each eye before the testing and after the testing with distance-image screen |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Changes of center macular thickness (um) | 12-month | Optic Coherent Topograph (OCT) of macular fovea central thickness will be made to compare the thickness before and after using distance-image screen |
| Changes of subretina choroidal thickness (um) | at 12-month | Optic Coherent Topograph (OCT) with Enhanced Depth Imaging (EDI) scan of macular fovea central thickness will be done to compare the thickness before and after using distance-image screen |
| Changes of other regions choroidal thickness (um) | 12-month | Optic Coherent Topograph (OCT) with Enhanced Depth Imaging (EDI) scan of other regions choroidal thickness will be done to compare the thickness before and after using distance-image screen |
