Brain vision training to prevent nearsightedness in kids
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether a brain-based vision training program can help prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children who are at risk. It's for children aged 6–10 with premyopia (slightly nearsighted or borderline) and at least one parent who is nearsighted.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 6 and 10 years old
- Your child has a specific eye prescription that indicates they are at risk for nearsightedness (between -0.50 and +0.75 diopters)
- At least one parent has a nearsighted prescription of -3.00 or more in one eye
- Your child does not have other significant eye problems like high astigmatism, anisometropia (big difference between eyes), strabismus (crossed eyes), or serious medical conditions

This study tests whether a special vision training exercise can improve how children with low myopia (mild nearsightedness) see blurry patterns. It may help strengthen their visual skills without medicines or lenses.
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 if teaching parents about eye health can help control nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It is for children who are not currently wearing contact lenses and have stable vision without eye disease.
This study tests if optimizing daily light exposure can prevent or slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It involves wearing a light-tracking device and spending time in specially lit classrooms.
This study tests a new prediction system that aims to slow down or prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It is for kids ages 9–11 who are already somewhat nearsighted but not severely, and don't have other eye or health problems.
This study tests whether a school-based program can help slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children who are either already nearsighted or at risk of becoming nearsighted. It may help reduce the need for stronger glasses in the future.
