Light-Blocking Glasses for Kids with Farsightedness
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests special light-blocking glasses to see if they can slow down farsightedness (hyperopia) in children. It may help kids who are already wearing regular glasses and have a specific amount of farsightedness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 6 and 12 years old.
- They need to be farsighted with a prescription between +3.00 and +7.50 (with up to 2.00 astigmatism).
- Both eyes should have similar prescriptions (difference less than 1.50).
- Your child must have been wearing regular glasses for at least 6 months.
- Their best vision with glasses should be 20/20 or better.
- They must be in good overall health and not have had any eye surgeries or serious eye diseases.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether special light-blocking glasses can help children with one eye that is much more farsighted than the other (a condition that can cause a lazy eye). Participants will wear these glasses for at least six months to see if the vision in the weaker eye improves.
This study tests if special glasses can prevent nearsightedness from developing quickly in children aged 6-10 who have low farsightedness.
This study tests new eyeglass lenses designed with tiny patterns to help slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 6–8. If the lenses work, they could help reduce the need for stronger glasses as your child grows.
This study tests whether specially designed glasses with multiple focus zones can slow down myopia (nearsightedness) progression in children. If your child has myopia that is worsening, these glasses may help protect their vision.
This trial tests two types of glasses for children who are nearsighted (myopic). The goal is to see which lenses are more comfortable, easier to adjust to, and more satisfying for the child.
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.
