Special lenses for slowing nearsightedness in children
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age between 6 and 14 years.
- Both eyes are nearsighted with a prescription between -0.50 and -4.00 (after eye drops that widen the pupil).
- Astigmatism (irregular eye shape) is 1.50 or less in both eyes, and the difference between the two eyes is 1.50 or less.
- No use of other myopia-control treatments (like special contact lenses, atropine drops, or red-light therapy) in the past 3 months.
- Willing to wear the study glasses at least 12 hours per day.
- Able to attend all 4 follow-up visits over 12 months, with a parent or guardian's consent.

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 special glasses that may slow the progression of high myopia (nearsightedness) in children and teens. If your child wears them for most of the day, they could help keep their vision from getting worse.
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 that may help slow down worsening nearsightedness in young adults. If you are nearsighted and your prescription has worsened in the past year, these lenses might be an option.
This trial tests a new type of spectacle lens designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. If your child is between 6 and 10 years old, has mild to moderate nearsightedness, and is willing to wear glasses full-time for two years, this study may be a good fit.
This study tests whether a special lens can slow down worsening nearsightedness in children who also have astigmatism (an uneven curve of the eye that blurs vision). The trial lasts 12 months and checks if the lens changes the astigmatism.
