Contact lenses vs glasses for slowing nearsightedness in teens
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study is looking at how different contact lenses and glasses can slow down the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in teens who already wear contacts. If you join, you will wear special lenses and have regular check-ups to see how your eyes change.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 11 and 17 years old
- You completed the 4-year MAP study (a previous myopia study with MiSight lenses)
- You already wear soft contact lenses
- Your nearsightedness is between -0.50 and -6.00 (mild to moderate)
- You are willing to wear the study lenses at least 10 hours a day, 5 days a week
- You have healthy eyes (no major eye conditions, no recent eye surgery)

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.
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 compares two types of glasses for children with nearsightedness (myopia). One type is designed to slow down myopia progression, and the other is a standard single-vision lens. The goal is to see if the special lenses help reduce how quickly myopia worsens.
This trial tests special glasses lenses designed to slow down the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in young children. If your child is eligible, they will wear these lenses for a year to see if their eyesight changes less than with regular glasses.
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.
