Abstract

A combination of treatment modalities was most popular (95%) and all the 3 treatment modalities were offered by 56% of ophthalmologists, although these rates varied significantly between regions (P < 0.001). Treatment rates to decrease myopia progression varied considerably among pediatric ophthalmologists globally. [Extracted from the article]
