Ear pellet acupressure for children with low farsightedness reserve
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether pressing small pellets on specific points of the ear (called auricular acupressure) can help keep children from becoming nearsighted. The ear points are believed to influence eye health and may help maintain the natural farsightedness that protects against myopia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child aged 4 to 14 years old
- Has a slight farsightedness range (hyperopia reserve) in at least one eye, measured after dilating eye drops
- No serious eye diseases or conditions affecting vision
- No diagnosis of myopia (nearsightedness)
- No allergy to the eye drops used in the study
- No recent participation in other clinical trials

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether using acupressure on the ear can help reduce the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) that can happen after stopping atropine eye drops, which are commonly used to slow myopia progression in children.
This study tests a school-based program to help prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in children who are not yet nearsighted but have a higher risk of developing it. It uses a simple, non-invasive method called auricular acupressure, which involves placing small seeds on the ear, to see if it can keep eyes healthy and reduce the chance of needing glasses.
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 a program to prevent or slow down early nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 3 to 6. It aims to find out if certain eye care methods can help keep their vision healthy.
This study tests whether special glasses (called H.O.P.E. lenses) combined with a low-dose atropine eye drop can slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children. It aims to help keep your child's vision from getting worse as they grow.
This study tests whether combining a special contact lens with atropine eye drops can slow down the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It aims to find a more effective way to prevent their vision from getting worse.
