Compares myopia progression outcomes between taper and stop groups in children, suggesting implications for treatment strategies.
This study found that over 3 years, the participants in the taper group had less myopia progression than the stop group, particularly in children who were younger and had more myopia. However, to our knowledge, the clinical relevance of this approximately 0.25-D difference between treatment groups is not well understood from the current medical literature.
