New contact lens aims to slow Kids' nearsightedness
NCT ID NCT07462897
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new type of eyeglass lens designed to slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 6 to 14. The new lens is compared to an older version to see which works better. Each child will wear both lenses over a year, and researchers will measure eye growth and vision changes.

Inclusion Criteria: * Refractive error in spherical equivalent (SE) ≤ -0.5 D and ≥ -4.5 D on each eye (autorefraction under cycloplegia) * Astigmatism ≤ 2.00 D for each eye * Anisometropia (difference in SE between the 2 eyes) ≤ 1.00 D * Corrected maximum distance visual acuity in each eye≥ 8/10 (equivalent to +0.1 LogMAR) * Written consent of the 2 holders of parental authority (or only one in the case of exclusive parental authority) and agreement of the participant Exclusion Criteria: * Past or current use of any type of myopic control solution (braking lenses, atropine, orthokeratology, multifocal contact lenses, etc * Strabismus (in the test of masking near or far with the best correction) * Amblyopia * Any ocular or systemic condition known to affect refractive status (e.g., keratoconus, diabetes, Down syndrome, etc.) * Presence of trauma in at least one eye - Presence of inflammatory pathologies in at least one eye * History of intraocular surgery (cataracts, filtering surgery, intravitreal surgery) in at least one eye * Past or current use of growth hormones * Use of ocular or systemic drugs that, in the opinion of the investigator, may significantly affect pupil size, accommodation, or refractive status. * Wearing contact lenses * Allergy or intolerance to cycloplegic eye drops (cyclopentolate 0.5%) * Known allergy or intolerance to eyeglass frame materials * Children with specific visual disorders requiring personalized treatments other than conventional corrective lenses. * Intolerance to conventional optical corrections * Lack of cooperation in wearing corrective lenses
