Spectacles vs night lenses: which slows Kids' myopia better?
NCT ID NCT05134935
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether special glasses (DIMS) are as good as overnight contact lenses (Ortho-K) at slowing myopia progression in children aged 6-12. Ninety kids wore either the glasses or the lenses for 18 months. The main goal was to see if the glasses were not worse than the lenses at controlling eye growth.
