Spherical Equivalent Refractive Error
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent auto refraction of the subject's right eye was computed from the sphero-cylindrical refraction measured with an open-field auto refractor. The median of 3 repeated measures, each of which was the average of 3 consecutive readings, was used for the analysis. Higher values in spherical refraction indicate progression in Myopia.
Time frame: Baseline and every 6 months post-baseline for 2 years
Axial Length
Axial length was measured with the IOLMaster at baseline and every 6 months for 2 years. Five measurements were collected for each visit from the subject's right eye and the average of the five measurements was used for the analysis.
Time frame: Baseline and every 6 months for 2 years
