Efficacy Comparison of 2 Low-dose Atropine Eye Drops in Vietnamese Children Myopia Management

April 5, 2023 updated by: Thi Mong Dung Nguyen, University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the efficacy of 2 low-dose atropine drops (0,01%; 0,05%) in Vietnamese children. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. How is the difference in efficacy among 3 groups: atropine 0,01% vs 0,05% vs spectacles?
  2. How is the difference in side effects among 3 groups: atropine 0,01% vs 0,05% vs spectacles?
  3. How is the difference in rebound phenomena between 2 atropine groups?
