Errors of Refraction Among Primary School Children
Recruiting
- Conditions
- Error, Refractive
- Registration Number
- NCT05366543
- Lead Sponsor
- Minia University
- Brief Summary
This study will include primary school children to evalute their refraction and follow those who will wear glasses to detect their compliance.
Visual acuity will be measured using autorefractometer after cycloplegic eye drops 3 times and glasses will be prescribed for those who are needed. Follow up of the students to detect their compliance of wearing correction.
