Objective: to evaluate the efficacy of different concentrations of atropine eye drops in controlling the progression (diopter, axial length) of high myopia in young children, and to compare the compliance, adverse reaction and regression rate of different concentrations of atropine eye drops in myopia control. Intervention: Group 1 (0.01% atropine group), Group 2 (0.04% atropine group), Group 3 (0.1% atropine group). During the 2-year intervention period after entering the group, each concentration of atropine eye drops were given every night at a fixed time before going to bed, one drop each time, implemented by parents (supervision), and the wechat small program was completed.

Changes of spherical equivalent
Spherical equivalent as measured by cycloplegia autorefraction
Time frame: at least 2 years
Change in axial length
AL was measured as the distance from the anterior corneal surface to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) using IOLMaster or Lenstar
Time frame: at least 2 years
Best corrected vision acuity (BCVA)
BCVA were measured at 4 meters by trained optometrists using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) logMAR chart
Time frame: at least 2 years
Intraocular pressure (IOP)
Intraocular pressure (IOP) is measured using a non-contact tonometer, with the average of three consecutive measurements taken.
Time frame: at least 2 years
Pupil size
Photopic and mesopic pupil diameters were measured using a handheld device (VIP-300, NeurOptics) after a 2-minute light adaptation and a 5-minute dark adaptation, respectively
Time frame: at least 2 years
Accommodative function
Positive/negative relative accommodation (PRA/NRA) were performed at a distance of 40 cm
Time frame: at least 2 years
