PURPOSE: To examine the changes in choroidal thickness (ChT) after 6 months of 1% or 0.01% atropine treatment and the independent factors associated with eye elongation.
METHODS: A total of 207 myopic children aged 6 to 12 years were recruited and randomly assigned to groups A and B in a ratio of 1:1. Participants in group A received 1% atropine once a day for 1 week, and then once a week for 23 weeks. Participants in group B received 0.01% atropine once a day for 6 months. ChT and internal axial length (IAL) were measured at baseline, 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months.
RESULTS: In group A, the ChT significantly increased after a 1-week loading dose of 1% atropine (26 ± 14 µm; P < 0.001) and the magnitude of increase stabilized throughout the following weekly treatment. The internal axial length did not significantly change at the 6-month visit (-0.01 ± 0.11 mm; P = 0.74). In contrast, a decreased ChT (-5 ± 17 µm; P < 0.001) and pronounced eye elongation (0.19 ± 0.12 mm; P < 0.001) were observed in group B after 6 months. Multivariable regression analysis showed that less increase in ChT at the 1-week visit (P = 0.03), younger age (P < 0.001), and presence of peripapillary atrophy (P = 0.001) were significantly associated with greater internal axial length increase over 6 months in group A.
CONCLUSIONS: One percent atropine could increase the ChT, whereas 0.01% atropine caused a decrease in ChT after 6 months of treatment. For participants receiving 1% atropine, the short-term increase in ChT was negatively associated with long-term eye elongation. Younger age and the presence of peripapillary atrophy were found to be risk factors for greater eye elongation.
