None known: Studies have been done with eyedrops that paralyze the internal eye focusing (Atropine is the most common for this purpose) with varying degrees of success. No other drop seems to make a difference and definitely once one enters the late teens, there seems nothing that will make a difference from the eyedrop selections.
