This completed trial tested whether a specially designed spectacle lens (CARE1.02) can slow the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in teenagers aged 12 to 17. About 796 teens in Guangzhou, China, wore either the CARE1.02 lens or a standard single-vision lens for one year. Re…

This study tested whether a new type of spectacle lens (partition multi-point defocus lens) is as good as another advanced lens (aspherical lenslets) at slowing the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. 194 children aged 8 to 13 years wore the lenses for two years.…

This study tested a new virtual reality (VR) system designed to slow the worsening of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. 116 kids aged 6 to 12 with mild to moderate myopia used the VR training, which creates special visual signals to stop the eye from growing too long. The goa…

This completed study tested whether artificial intelligence (AI) can detect systemic diseases, like liver problems, by analyzing eye images. Researchers trained a deep learning model on eye photos from 775 participants. The goal was to see if the AI could spot signs of disease th…

This study tested a head-mounted device called the Shilangqing Smart Reading Aid, which uses XR and AI to help children with low vision read more easily. 120 children aged 6-18 used the device for 12 weeks, and researchers measured reading speed, accuracy, and eye comfort compare…

This study tested whether a large language model (like ChatGPT) could collect medical history and suggest eye tests as well as doctors do. 172 patients with non-emergency eye problems took part. The AI's performance was compared to standard care, with senior specialists checking …
