New glasses aim to slow nearsightedness in children
NCT ID NCT07497672
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests two new types of multifocal glasses designed to manage myopia (nearsightedness) in children aged 8 to 15. Twenty kids who already wear myopia-control glasses will try each new design for a short time to see how well they see and how comfortable they feel. The goal is to find better options for slowing down worsening nearsightedness.
