This study aims to see if pressing special pellets on the ear, using low-dose atropine eye drops, or both can delay or prevent the start of nearsightedness in children. It will involve 380 children aged 4 to 14 who show early signs of risk for becoming nearsighted. Researchers wi…

This study aims to compare the effectiveness and safety of a new brand of daily disposable contact lenses (ST-1) against an existing brand (Miru 1day UpSide). It will enroll 63 adults in Taiwan who are regular contact lens wearers with nearsightedness. Participants will wear the …

This study aims to better understand the stiffness and material properties of the cornea (the clear front part of the eye) in people getting laser surgery for nearsightedness. Researchers will test tiny pieces of corneal tissue normally thrown away after surgery and compare them …

This study aims to understand if the type of glasses a teenager wears changes how close they hold objects like books or phones. Researchers will observe 100 teens, some with normal vision and some with nearsightedness wearing different lenses, while they do everyday tasks. They w…

This study aims to understand how the eye uses oxygen in children with nearsightedness (myopia). Researchers will compare 40 children with myopia to 40 children without it, all aged 8-13. They will use special eye scans to measure oxygen extraction and blood flow, and ask about l…

This study aims to understand why some children with normal vision develop nearsightedness (myopia). Researchers will follow 100 children aged 4-9 for up to five years, tracking their eye health and lifestyle factors. The goal is to identify which children are most at risk so tha…
