NCT ID NCT06647472
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study examines protein differences in the tears of nearsighted children who use special overnight contact lenses (orthokeratology) to slow down worsening vision. Researchers want to understand why some children get better control of their myopia than others. The study involves 20 children and uses advanced protein analysis to find clues that could lead to more personalized and effective treatments in the future.
