Real-world evidence for atropine titration in myopia control: a comparative study of three low-dose regimens in Chinese children
Low-concentration atropine is effective in controlling myopia progression in children. Among the three concentrations, 0.025% atropine offers better efficacy and tolerability, providing comparable axial elongation control to 0.05% with potentially fewer side effects. These findings support its use as a first-line pharmacologic option for pediatric myopia management in clinical practice.
