- NCT06839898Recruiting
Study of two implantable astigmatism-correcting lenses
This study tests two types of implantable lenses that correct astigmatism (blurry vision from an irregularly shaped cornea). You keep your own natural lens, and the new lens is placed in front of it—no laser or lens removal needed. The goal is to see which lens works better and is safer.

Can special glasses slow down nearsightedness in children?
This trial tests a new type of spectacle lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. If your child is between 6 and 10 years old, has mild to moderate nearsightedness, and is willing to wear glasses full-time for two years, this study may be a good fit.
SingaporeAges 6–11 - NCT06882408Recruiting
Vision screening study for children
This study tests a special camera that checks for vision problems in children. It is designed to find nearsightedness, farsightedness, and other eye issues. Kids will have a quick vision check during one visit.

SMILE vs SMILE Xtra for high myopia
This study compares two types of laser eye surgery (SMILE and SMILE Xtra) to see which works better for people with high myopia. It aims to help you understand which option might give you the best vision correction.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–50 - NCT06992011Recruiting
Comparing SMILE vs SMILE Xtra for nearsightedness
This study compares two types of laser eye surgery (SMILE and SMILE Xtra) to see which works better for treating nearsightedness. The goal is to help you see clearly without glasses or contacts.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–50 - NCT07008001Recruiting
DOT glasses for Chinese children with myopia: extension study
This trial tests whether a special type of glasses (called DOT spectacles) can continue to help control nearsightedness in children. Children who already completed the earlier CATHAY study can join and wear the glasses for another 12 months.
ChangshaAges 8–16 - NCT07021560Recruiting
ZEISS MyoCare glasses for slowing myopia in children

HanoiAges 7–13 - NCT07028827RecruitingPhase 3
Atropine eye drops for nearsightedness in kids and teens
This trial tests whether atropine eye drops can slow down worsening nearsightedness (myopia) in children and teenagers. It may help keep their eyesight from getting worse over time.
TiranaAges 3–17 - NCT07052825Recruiting
Testing a ring for lens stability in nearsighted cataract patients
This study tests whether a small ring placed around the lens implant during cataract surgery helps keep the implant stable for people with high myopia (severe nearsightedness). It could lead to better vision and fewer complications after surgery.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07095894RecruitingPhase 3
Glasses or eye drops for slowing nearsightedness in kids
This study tests whether special glasses or low-dose atropine eye drops can slow down worsening nearsightedness in children. It compares four groups: glasses alone, eye drops alone, both together, or a placebo (no active treatment).
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 5–11 - NCT07298824RecruitingPhase 2
Study of MR-61 to slow nearsightedness in children and teens
This trial tests if MR-61 can help slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children and teenagers. It may be an option for patients between 3 and 18 years old who are already nearsighted and have no other eye problems.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 3–18 - NCT07312214Recruiting
Red light therapy for slowing vision loss in severe nearsightedness
This trial tests if daily low-level red light can protect the back of the eye in people with severe nearsightedness. It aims to slow damage that leads to vision loss.
ShanghaiAges 18–55 - NCT07335146Recruiting
Eye imaging study for childhood nearsightedness
This study uses advanced eye imaging to understand how nearsightedness (myopia) develops in children. It may help researchers find better ways to manage or slow myopia progression.
ParisAges 6–12 - NCT07340931Recruiting
Myopia-control spectacle lenses study for children
This study tests if special Essilor® spectacle lenses can slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children. It aims to see if the lenses are comfortable and well-tolerated by young patients.
Nantes, NantesAges 6–16 - NCT07354945Recruiting
Study of myopia control lenses in children
This study tests how well children adapt to special myopia control lenses. It aims to see if these lenses are comfortable and easy to wear for kids with nearsightedness.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 6–12 - NCT07390500RecruitingPhase 2
Myopia control study for children using digital devices
This study tests a special lens designed to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It is for kids who spend at least one hour a day on screens and currently wear regular glasses.
RehovotAges 6–12 - NCT07522242RecruitingPhase 2
Eye Drops to Slow Nearsightedness in Children
This study tests a new eye drop medicine (T10430) to see if it can slow down how fast children's nearsightedness gets worse. The trial will measure whether the drops are safe and effective for kids ages 6–11.
AmmanAges 6–11 - NCT07653074Recruiting
Vision and quality of life in youth with myopia or CVI
This study looks at how vision problems like nearsightedness (myopia) and a brain-based vision condition (CVI) affect daily life and well-being in children. It aims to understand what support they might need to thrive in a modern world.

3D designed defocus lenses for slowing myopia in children
This trial tests special glasses with 3D defocus lenses to slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children and teens. It aims to see if these lenses are more effective than standard glasses at preventing vision from getting worse.
ShanghaiAges 6–14 - NCT07119723Enrolling by invitation
Study on environment and nearsightedness in Uyghur children
This trial looks at how things in the environment might affect nearsightedness (myopia) in Uyghur children living in remote parts of China. If your child is between 6 and 15 and has no other eye problems, this study could help understand what causes myopia and how to prevent it.
TianjinAges 6–15 - NCT05955638Enrolling by invitation
Dual-focus contacts to slow worsening near-sightedness
This study tests whether dual-focus soft contact lenses can help slow how quickly myopia (near-sightedness) gets worse in young university students. You may be assigned either the dual-focus lens or a control lens, and you would need to wear the lenses most days for set hours.
Bradford, West YorkshireAges 18–21 - NCT05559567Enrolling by invitation
Study for new adults with early myopia and no treatment
This study checks eye measurements (like “axial length,” the distance inside the eye) in adults with new-onset nearsightedness who are not using any myopia-control treatment yet. The results may help guide how myopia-control strategies are best applied.

How streetscape views affect children's perception
This study uses eye-tracking glasses to see how children with and without myopia (nearsightedness) look at outdoor scenes from streets and neighborhoods. The results may help design environments that support healthy vision in children.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for myopia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 128 recruiting myopia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a myopia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a myopia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
