Myopia prevention with screen distance study
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests if a distance-image screen can help prevent myopia (nearsightedness) from getting worse. It is for children ages 6 to 12 who have had recent changes in their vision.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 6 and 12 years old
- Your vision with glasses or contacts is good (20/25 or better)
- Your nearsightedness or farsightedness is between -1.00 and +6.00

- Your astigmatism (blurring from an irregularly shaped eye) is less than 1.75

This study tests whether combining PBM (a light/laser treatment used in eye studies) with a special myopia-defocus lens can slow nearsightedness in children. It may help reduce how fast eyesight gets worse over time.
This study tests whether teaching parents about eye care can help slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It will provide education to parents and follow their children's eye health over time.
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.
This study tests if a special virtual reading device can slow or prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children who are starting to show signs of it. It's for kids ages 6 to 12 with mild farsightedness or beginning nearsightedness and at least one parent who is nearsighted.
This study tests whether a school-based program can help prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children who currently have good distance vision and enough 'eye reserve' (hyperopic reserve) to potentially avoid becoming nearsighted. It focuses on early elementary students to see if simple activities can keep their eyes healthy.
This trial tests a special eyeglass lens designed to slow down the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 6 to 14. It aims to keep their eyesight from getting worse quickly.
