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 volunteers

Qualifiers

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).

Refractive error by cycloplegic refraction in both eyes: myopia -0.75 D to -9.75 D spherical equivalent; astigmatism ≤ 4.00D; anisometropia <3.00 D

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

Use of rigid gas permeable lenses, including orthokeratology lenses within 90 days of screening
