Overview
To investigate whether probiotic MR-61 can assist in slowing down the progression rate of myopia (a prospective randomized controlled study).
Detailed description
To investigate whether probiotic MR-61 can assist in slowing down the progression rate of myopia (a prospective randomized controlled study).
Interventions
