Myopia treatment after orthokeratology lens use in children
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial looks at which treatments work best to slow down nearsightedness in children who have already worn orthokeratology (Ortho-K) overnight lenses for a year. It compares treatments like low-dose atropine drops or red-light therapy in children whose eyes are still getting longer quickly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Started wearing Ortho-K lenses between ages 8 and 12
- Both eyes had a prescription between -0.50 and -6.00 diopters at the start
- Wearing Ortho-K lenses for 8 to 10 hours every night
- No past eye injuries or surgeries
- Eyes getting longer by more than 0.30 mm per year while wearing Ortho-K
- Able to follow lens care instructions and attend regular check-ups

This Phase 3 trial tests different doses of atropine eye drops to see which dose best slows myopia (nearsightedness) from getting worse in children. It may help by reducing how fast your child’s eyesight changes over time.
This study compares three ways to slow down nearsightedness in children: special glasses (defocus lenses), regular glasses, and orthokeratology contact lenses (worn overnight). It aims to find which works best for kids who have never worn glasses before.
This trial tests a new type of glasses (Myoless2.0) to see if they can help slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. Children aged 6 to 12 who have myopia and no other eye problems may be able to join.
This study tests whether special glasses or low-dose atropine eye drops can slow down worsening nearsightedness in children. It compares four groups: glasses alone, eye drops alone, both together, or a placebo (no active treatment).
This study tests whether special soft contact lenses can slow down myopia (nearsightedness) worsening in children ages 7–12. If the lenses work, they could help reduce the need for stronger glasses over time.
This study tests a special spectacle lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 6 to 8. It may be a good option for kids who are mildly to moderately nearsighted and haven't used other myopia control treatments.
