New glasses aim to put the brakes on Kids' nearsightedness
NCT ID NCT05174780
Summary
This study tested whether a new type of spectacle lens is safe and effective at slowing the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children. It involved 159 children aged 6 to 12 who wore the test glasses for at least 10 hours a day, 6 days a week, over three years. The main goal was to see if these lenses could reduce how quickly the children's eyes lengthened and their vision prescription worsened.
