Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looks at whether using a special red light device twice a day can help prevent or control nearsightedness (myopia) in children aged 5 to 16. Researchers are following 3,000 kids who have used the therapy for at least a year, some for up to three years or more. The goal is to see how well it works over time and what factors, like how consistently it's used, affect the results.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
repeated low-level red-light therapy (device)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a non-invasive, drug-free option to slow or prevent myopia progression in children, reducing the need for glasses or contacts.
What could go wrong
This is an observational follow-up study, not a randomized trial, so results may be influenced by individual differences and compliance. Long-term safety and effectiveness are still being evaluated.
