The present study was undertaken to ivestigate the efficiency of 0.25% tropicamide eyedrops to treat myopia or accommodative myopia in 160 eyes (87 cases) of school children: 1.The mydriatic
cyeloplegic action and recovery were so quick that it did not intere-fere the studying next day
and there were no side effects. 2. The effective rate of treating myopia
accommodative myopia and low degree hyperopia in primary school children was 58%
but for middle school students
the effect was not satisfactory
This may be due to that the middle school students didn’t insist on treatment
and that their degree of myopia was higher than that of primary school children. 3.The long term effects of this drug
and its preventive effect on myopia need further obseration
