About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a 1-year course of IVMED-85 eye drops for the treatment of pediatric myopia by assessing its safety effects on visual acuity and its effect on the change and/or progression of myopia.
The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
* Does IVMED 85 improve visual acuity * Does IVMED 85 slow or otherwise change the progression of myopia
Participants will use eyedrops twice a day for one year. Researchers will compare IVMED 85 to a placebo.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Age 5 to 16 years and 6 months, three age groups cohorts (5-8), (9-12), and (13-16) (Phase 1 patients will be exclusively age 13-16).

Best corrected distance visual acuity better than or equal to Snellen 20/40 (logMAR equivalent 0.3) in both eyes
Kmax >40 D and <50 D in both eyes
Disqualifiers
Current or previous myopia treatment with atropine, pirenzepine, or other topical anti-muscarinic
Significant central corneal scarring or hydrops
Known copper allergy
