Myopia Treatments and Eye Strain in Kids
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how different treatments for nearsightedness (myopia) affect eye strain (asthenopia) in children and teens. It compares common treatments like glasses, special lenses, and eye drops to see which works best for comfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 6 to 18 years old and have nearsightedness (myopia).
- You are currently using one of the following: regular glasses, special glasses, orthokeratology lenses, low-dose atropine drops, or red-light therapy, or you are not using any treatment.
- Your vision with glasses or contacts is 20/25 or better (0.8 on a standard chart).
- You have not had any eye surgery.
- You do not have serious eye problems like keratoconus, glaucoma, or cataracts, and you are not taking medication that might cause eye strain.

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 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 if spending more time outdoors can help slow the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It involves using special contact lenses and tracking vision changes over one year.
This study compares two ways to slow down worsening nearsightedness in children: special electronic glasses versus low-dose atropine eye drops. It may help your child keep their eyesight from getting much worse over time.
This study compares different ways to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children, including eyedrops and other treatments. It is designed for kids whose vision is getting worse and who are willing to join for 2 years.
This study tests a new eye drop medicine (T10430) to see if it can slow down how fast children's nearsightedness gets worse. The trial will measure whether the drops are safe and effective for kids ages 6–11.
