3D designed defocus lenses for slowing myopia in children

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.

ZEISS MyoCare glasses for slowing myopia in children
This trial tests whether ZEISS MyoCare glasses can slow down the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It is designed for kids aged 7 to 13 who are already nearsighted and need stronger glasses over time.
HanoiAges 7–13 - 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 - NCT06850168Recruiting
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 - NCT06344572Recruiting
Study of SAT-001 for children with nearsightedness
This trial tests a device called SAT-001 to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 5 to 9. It might help if your child has mild to moderate nearsightedness with low astigmatism.
IncheonAges 5–8 - NCT06523504RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Atropine Drops with Special Glasses for Myopia in Children
This trial tests whether a combination of low-dose atropine eye drops (0.02% or 0.04%) and special glasses (called DIMS) can slow down the worsening of moderate to high myopia in children aged 6 to 12.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 6–12 - NCT06282848Recruiting
Myopia treatments for children ages 7 to 9
This study compares different ways to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children, including eyedrops and other treatments. It is designed for kids whose vision is getting worse and who are willing to join for 2 years.

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 - NCT05606237Recruiting
Red-light sessions to slow worsening nearsightedness
This study tests whether repeated low-level red-light therapy can slow how fast nearsightedness (myopia) gets worse in children. It may help protect future eyesight, but your child must meet specific vision and health requirements and follow the study plan.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 8–13 - NCT04187599Recruiting
Check how a specific contact lens fits and works

- 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.
