Light therapy device for myopia in children and teens
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device that uses special light to slow down or prevent myopia (nearsightedness) in children aged 6 to 18. It compares the device to a fake treatment to see if it works.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 6 and 18 years old.
- You have myopia (nearsightedness) between -0.50 and -6.00 diopters in both eyes.
- Your astigmatism (blurry vision due to eye shape) is less than 2.50 diopters.
- You have not used other myopia control methods (like special glasses or contact lenses) in the last six months.
- You have records of your eye measurements from six months ago.
- You are willing to use the device and come to the clinic for check-ups.

This trial tests if different low-intensity red light devices, used at different frequencies, can help control myopia in young adults aged 18 to 35.
This study tests if a special red light device can help adults with very high nearsightedness. You would use the device at home as part of the trial, and researchers will check if it slows vision changes.
This study tests whether low-intensity red light at 650 nm can help children and teens with mild problems focusing their eyes. It is designed to see if the treatment is safe and useful for the right type of refractive error.
This study tests how well a special imaging device (AO-SLO) can measure cells in the back of the eye, and how these cells change in people who use repeated low-level red-light therapy for myopia (nearsightedness). It may help researchers understand if this therapy is safe and effective for controlling myopia.
This trial tests if specific doses of red light can slow down myopia (nearsightedness) progression in children aged 6 to 14. It compares how well different light exposures work over a year.
This study tests whether a special red light therapy can help slow down the progression of nearsightedness in children. It compares different amounts of light and how often it is used to find the best way to keep myopia from getting worse.
