650 nm low-level red-light: Typically, children who uses the 650 nm low-level red-light will be recruited into this study. The use of any other myopia intervention is not restricted except for low concentrations of atropine. Because atropine will cause pupils dilated, the amount of light entering the eye can not be controlled, and red-light is a laser, to be safe, we need to take certain consideration of the amount of light-entering. Participants receive the 650 nm low-level red-light intervention not because they are enrolled in a study, they would receive the intervention in the same manner and intensity if they were not enrolled in the study.
Study summary
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 650nm low-level red-light irradiation for myopia control and prevention in children under less restrictive conditions than randomized controlled trials. Participants included children(aged 7 to 18 years, spherical equivalent error of 0.5D or below) who are already myopic at recruitment, and those who are of Emmetropia or low hyperopia.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Change in axial length — Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up Use an optical biometer to measure the axial length
Change in spherical equivalent error — Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up Children's pupil were dilated using Mydrin-P eye drops, and then the refractive error was measured using an autorefractor. the two measurements (axial length and spherical equivalent error) will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value through the following way: axial enlongation will be defined as progress in myopia, decrease in spherical equivalent error will be defined as progress in myopia too.
