Testing a prediction system to prevent nearsightedness
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 9 and 11 years old.
- You have had an eye refraction test (a check of your glasses prescription) within the past year.
- You and your parent or guardian have signed a form agreeing to join the study.
- You do not have severe nearsightedness (a prescription stronger than -6.00 diopters).
- You do not have other eye problems (like lazy eye, crossed eyes, or cataracts) or other health issues that affect vision.

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 special glasses designed to slow or prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in young children ages 3 to 6. It may help if your child has mild farsightedness or low nearsightedness and at least one parent is nearsighted.
This study tests two types of special glasses (MiYOSMART) for children with nearsightedness (myopia). The aim is to see how well they slow the progression of myopia while being comfortable and safe to wear.
This trial tests if a digital program can help parents learn how to prevent and manage nearsightedness (myopia) in their young children. It also looks at how the program affects children's overall health and wellbeing.
This trial tests an intervention to prevent nearsightedness (myopia) and other health problems in children. It may help your child if they are in grades 3-4, aged 8-11, and generally healthy.
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.
