Contact lenses for one-eye nearsightedness in children
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether special contact lenses can slow the worsening of nearsightedness in children who have it in only one eye. If your child is eligible, they would wear the lenses for a year to see how well they work.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Aged 7 to 18 years.
- Nearsighted in one eye only, with the other eye having little or no nearsightedness.
- Astigmatism in the nearsighted eye is mild (1.00 D or less).
- Vision in the nearsighted eye is at least 20/25 with glasses or contacts.
- Can wear the study contact lenses for at least 10 hours a day, 6 days a week.
- Must be available for 12 months of follow-up visits.

This trial tests whether Misight 1 Day contact lenses can help children and young adults whose eyes have different prescriptions (anisometropia). It looks at how much the vision difference changes over 24 months of wearing the lenses.
This study tests whether specially designed glasses can help children whose two eyes have very different levels of nearsightedness. The glasses aim to slow down how quickly the eyes become more nearsighted over one year.
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.
This trial tests whether special glasses lenses can slow down worsening nearsightedness (myopia) in children and teens aged 6-14. The goal is to see if these lenses help keep vision from getting worse over a year.
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.
This trial tests special contact lenses that are designed to slow down the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in adults. If you are 18-30, wear contacts, and your myopia has been worsening, this could be an option to help stabilize your vision.
