Description of intervention(s) / exposure
A commercially available, dynamic autorefractor (Grand Seiko WAM 5500) will be used to measure accommodation and pupillary responses. Participants will be seated in front of this instrument with their chin and forehead comfortably rested. Participants will be asked to look at the computer display placed at 50cms. Text in English language and mathematical problems will be presented on the computer screen. Participants will be asked to read the text material and calculate the solution for the mathematical problems. These tasks will be performed under the white and blue light illumination.

Once participant is seated comfortably, the examiner aligns the instrument and records the data by pressing the start button of the instrument. Accommodation and pupillary responses will be recorded using auto refractor. Measurements would be performed under normal binocular viewing and participants can blink normally while the measurement is in progress and regular breaks will be provided between the measurements.

All the measurements using autorefractor will be performed inserting a soft contact lens which is equivalent to the participants habitual refractive correction to get the accurate measurements from the instrument. Participants will be fitted with a soft contact lens for the duration of the study. A clean, sterile lens will be removed from the package and inserted on the eye. The lens will be inserted by research student (who has experience in fitting the contact lens) under the supervision of registered optometrist and participants will be required to wear the contact lens for approximately 45 minutes (for each type of lens). Once the study procedures are completed, the contact lens will be removed and discarded.

Participants have to attend three visits and the measurements will be done using commercially available daily disposable soft contact lenses, MiSight contact lenses from CooperVision Inc, and Miyo Smart spectacle lenses from Hoya corporation. Each session would take approximately 45 minutes only. Acuvue moist lenses are single vision contact lenses whereas MiSight contact lenses and Miyo Smart lenses are multifocal contact lenses and spectacles for myopia control from CooperVision Inc and Hoya corporation respectively. Wash out period between the sessions would be 24 hours.

Statistical methods / analysis
15 myopes would be recruited in the study. Pupil size will be recorded in an interval scale and analyzed as a continuous variable. Normality of the outcome variable will be assessed using shapiro- wilk test and appropriate transformations will be done if there is significant departure from the normality. The independent factors, accommodation, cognition will be recorded as ranked or categorical variables. As all subjects will be exposed to each level of the independent factor, the effects of accommodation, and cognition on pupil size will be analysed using linear models or repeated measures of ANOVA, where the independent factors are within-Participant factors and subject random intercepts are factored to account for within Participant correlation. Interactions of factors will be tested. If interactions are significant then the post hoc univariate analysis will be performed within levels of other interacting factors. Post hoc multiple comparisons will be adjusted using Bonferroni correction. Statistical significance will be at 5%.
