Resolution of Near-Work-Related Effects, Accommodation, and Binocular Vision Changes of 0.05% Atropine After 1 Year: Secondary Analysis of a Prospective Study.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Short-term side effects often hinder the adoption of low-dose atropine in myopia management. Evidence from long-term observations and guidance on optimal dosing frequency is needed to inform clinical practice. This study aims to evaluate the effects of 0.05% atropine on near-work-related effects, accommodation, and binocular vision over 1 year of treatment.

Methods

Chinese children with myopia (aged from 6 to 14 years, cycloplegic spherical equivalent ≤ -1.00 D in both eyes) were enrolled between March 2021 and August 2023 at Changsha Aier Eye Hospital. Participants were randomly assigned to three regimen groups of 0.05% atropine: once daily (Qd), twice per week (Tw), and once per week (Qw) groups. Reported visual quality related side effects, the change of near
