To assess the two-week ocular responses, especially on pupillary size and accommodative amplitude, of nightly application of 0.01% or 0.02% or 0.03% atropine eye drops in children with myopia who were randomized to use of three different low-concentration atropine eye drops
Atropine was proven to be effective in controlling myopia progression. However, the most common side effects of the use of atropine eye drop are dilation of pupil and decrease of accommodation. The investigators wish to evaluate the ocular responses of three low concentration atropine eye drops, 0.01% or 0.02% or 0.03%, mainly on the pupillary size and accommodative responses in children aged between 6 to 12 years old over two-week usage.

NB: Systemic antihistamines are allowed on an "as needed basis", provided they are not used prophylactically during the trial and at least 24 hours before the clinical trial product is used.

History of eye surgery
History of use of any myopia control interventions such as Orthokeratology, Rigid Permeable Contact Lenses Eye surgery within 12 weeks immediately prior to enrolment for this trial.
Currently treated with other interventions for myopia control
Contraindications to atropine such as pulmonary disease, heart conditions and ADHD
Known allergy or intolerance to ingredients to atropine eye-drops and other derivatives of anti-muscarinic receptor agents.
