aPaired-samples T tests were used to analyze the differences between non-cycloplegic and cycloplegic refractions in each group.

bWilcoxon rank sum tests were used to analyze the differences between non-cycloplegic and cycloplegic refractions in each group.

cIndependent-sample T-tests were used to analyze the differences in non-cycloplegic refractions between the two groups.

dIndependent-sample T-tests were used to analyze the differences in cycloplegic refractions between two the groups.

eMann–Whitney U-tests were used to analyze the differences in cycloplegic refractions between two the groups.
