Hyperopic reserve screening for kindergartners in Beijing

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is a population-based screening program conducted across all senior kindergartens in Beijing to measure hyperopic reserve and related ocular biometry. Non-cycloplegic eye measurements and a parental questionnaire are used to identify children who may have insufficient hyperopic reserve. The effort is led by Beijing Tongren Hospital with Capital Medical University, supported by the Beijing Municipal Education Commission, and includes data collection from over 2,000 kindergartens and about 134,000 children, though only those with parental consent are actually screened. The study aims to inform potential myopia prevention interventions and understand risk factors associated with myopia onset and progression. No interventional treatment is described within the screening itself.
