High-accuracy -meson photoproduction data from EIC and EicC experiments will allow the measurement of the near-threshold total cross section of the reaction , from which the absolute value of the scattering length, , can be extracted using a Vector-Meson Dominance model. For this evaluation, we used -meson photoproduction quasi-data from the QCD approach (the production amplitude can be factorized in terms of gluonic generalized parton distributions and the quarkonium distribution amplitude). A comparative analysis of with the recently determined scattering lengths for , , and using the A2, CLAS, and GlueX experimental data are performed. The role of the "young" vector-meson effect is evaluated.
