Follow-up study for severe nearsightedness
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study follows people with high myopia over time to monitor their eye health. It aims to better understand how very nearsighted eyes change.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have high myopia (severe nearsightedness).
- You cannot have acute ischemic optic neuropathy (sudden vision loss from poor optic nerve blood flow).
- You cannot have macular or peripapillary atrophy (thinning of the central retina or around the optic nerve).
- You cannot have other forms of maculopathy (any other disease of the central retina).

This study registers children and teens in Shanghai who have significant nearsightedness, to better track eye health over time. It may help researchers understand why high myopia develops and how to prevent or monitor complications.
This study follows about 1,000 people with severe nearsightedness to better understand their eye health over time. If you have severe myopia and can be seen at one of the study centers, you may be able to contribute to research that can help guide future care.
This study follows children with normal vision to see who develops nearsightedness (myopia) and what factors might affect it. It aims to understand how eye development and environment together influence the need for glasses.
This study looks at how high myopia (severe nearsightedness) affects the eye over time. It aims to better understand the condition and improve care for people with high myopia.
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.
This study follows how the eyes of children with nearsightedness (myopia) grow over time. It aims to learn more about how myopia changes as children get older.
