One-year cumulative incidence of myopia (%) in the intervention group and the control group.
Myopia is defined as the cycloplegic spherical equivalent of either eye ≤-0.5D
Time frame: 1 year
The progress of spherical equivalent(SE,D) of children in intervention group and control group.
The spherical equivalent(SE,D) will be measured by autorefractor(KR-8900, Topcon).
Time frame: 1 year
The progress of axial length of children in intervention group and control group.
The axial length will be measured using IOLMaster.
Time frame: 1 year
The progress of choroidal thickness in children in pre-myopia state in intervention group and control group.
The choroidal thickness will be measured using SS-OCT.
Time frame: 1 year
The change of uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of children in intervention group and control group.
The uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) will be measured using a mounted and illuminated E chart of the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy study (ETDRS) charts.
Time frame: 1 year
