Contact Lenses and Myopia Study for Children
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether special contact lenses can help slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 8–10. Researchers want to see if wearing these lenses daily can help your child's eyes develop more normally and reduce the need for stronger glasses over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 8 and 10 years old
- Your child has mild nearsightedness or normal vision (specific prescription range required)
- Your child can wear contact lenses at least 10 hours a day, 6 days a week
- Your child has no serious eye diseases, allergies, or conditions affecting vision development
- Your child and family can attend all study visits and follow the study schedule
- Your child has not used myopia control treatments (like special eye drops or ortho-k lenses) in the past month, or can wait 4 weeks before starting

This study is testing whether special glasses can slow down the start or worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children who are not yet nearsighted but are at risk. Your child would be monitored over time, and some children will receive the special glasses.
This study tests how well children adapt to special myopia control lenses. It aims to see if these lenses are comfortable and easy to wear for kids with nearsightedness.
This study tests new eyeglass lenses designed with tiny patterns to help slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 6–8. If the lenses work, they could help reduce the need for stronger glasses as your child grows.
This study tests new glasses with special microscopic patterns designed to slow down myopia (nearsightedness) in children and teenagers. Researchers want to see if wearing these glasses can help prevent myopia from getting worse.
This study is testing the safety and comfort of new glasses with special lenses designed to slow down nearsightedness in children. It compares differences between the new lenses and regular lenses, and the child will wear them for a period of time to see how they feel and if there are any concerns.
This study tests a special contact lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children ages 8 to 12. If your child is nearsighted and needs glasses, this lens might help reduce the need for stronger prescriptions over time.
