Red-light therapy for myopia in adults
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special red-light device can safely slow or stop nearsightedness from getting worse in adults. You'll use the light at home for a few minutes each day, and the team will check your vision over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 50 years old.
- Your nearsightedness is between -0.50 and -6.00 (mild to moderate).
- You have little or no astigmatism (1.50 or less).
- With glasses, your vision is 20/20 or better.
- You haven't used other myopia treatments (like special contact lenses or atropine eye drops) in the past 6 months.
- You haven't had eye surgery, like LASIK or cataract surgery.

This study tests if red light therapy can cause short-term changes in the back of the eye (the choroid and retina) in people with mild to moderate nearsightedness (myopia). It may help researchers understand if this therapy could be used to slow down or improve nearsightedness.
This study tests whether red light therapy can help slow or improve vision in adults with high or extreme myopia. Participants use a red-light device at home for a period of time, and doctors check if it makes a difference.
This study tests whether repeated low-level red-light therapy can slow how fast nearsightedness (myopia) gets worse in children. It may help protect future eyesight, but your child must meet specific vision and health requirements and follow the study plan.
This study tests a new device that uses gentle light, similar to sunlight, to help slow down the progression of nearsightedness in children. It might be an alternative to glasses, contact lenses, or eye drops.
This study tests different red light devices and how often you use them to treat nearsightedness (myopia). It aims to find the best way to slow down or stop myopia from getting worse in young adults.
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.
