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 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 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 whether strength training can help care for myopia (nearsightedness) in children aged 5 to 7 who are about to start first grade. It aims to see if exercise can improve eye health.
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.
This study tests whether after-school exercise programs can help prevent or slow down nearsightedness (myopia) and improve children's physical and mental health. It is for children who are already in an after-school program and are generally healthy.
