Do special glasses slow myopia in children?
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests whether special Rodenstock glasses can slow down the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It's for kids aged 6 to 12 who have never had myopia treatment before.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 6 and 12 years old.
- They must be nearsighted (myopia) and have never had treatment for it before.
- Their nearsightedness should be between -0.50 and -5.00 diopters (a measure of prescription strength).
- Any difference in prescription between the two eyes must be less than 1.50 diopters.
- Their astigmatism (if present) must be less than 1.50 diopters, and not an irregular type.
- They must have good vision when wearing glasses (20/25 or better in each eye, and 20/20 or better with both eyes).

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.
This study compares two types of glasses for children with nearsightedness (myopia). One type is designed to slow down myopia progression, and the other is a standard single-vision lens. The goal is to see if the special lenses help reduce how quickly myopia worsens.
This study tests special glasses designed to slow down the progression of nearsightedness in children who have a small amount of farsightedness. It may help prevent myopia from developing or worsening.
This trial tests whether special glasses lenses can slow down worsening nearsightedness (myopia) in children and teens aged 6-14. The goal is to see if these lenses help keep vision from getting worse over a year.
This trial tests special glasses lenses designed to slow down the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in young children. If your child is eligible, they will wear these lenses for a year to see if their eyesight changes less than with regular glasses.
This study tests if special Essilor® spectacle lenses can slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children. It aims to see if the lenses are comfortable and well-tolerated by young patients.
