A Pilot Evaluation of Refractive Error Progression in Pre-Myopic Children in Singapore With and Without Myopia Control Spectacles

This study aims to find out whether ZEISS MyoActive lenses can help prevent short-sightedness from developing in children. We aim to recruit at least 50 children in total for this study. Myopia (short-sightedness) is becoming increasingly common in children worldwide. Early onset of myopia often leads to faster progression and a higher chance of developing high myopia, which increases the risk of serious eye conditions that can affect vision in adulthood, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, and cataracts. Current treatments can slow the worsening of short-sightedness once children become myopic, but there is limited evidence on whether early intervention can delay myopia from developing in the first place. This study will compare two types of commonly used spectacle lenses: ZEISS MyoActive lenses, which are designed to provide a type of optical signal that may reduce the worsening of short-sightedness; and Standard single-vision lenses, which are the usual lenses prescribed for clear vision. Children who join the study will be randomly assigned to wear one of these two lens types for 12 months. They will attend regular check-ups during this time so we can monitor their eye health and vision. By randomly assigning children to one of these two lens types and following them over 12 months, we aim to determine whether ZEISS MyoActive lenses: reduce the likelihood of developing short-sightedness, slow changes in how short-sighted a child's eyes are becoming and eye growth, and are safe, comfortable, and well-tolerated for everyday use. The findings from this study may help improve early myopia prevention strategies and potentially reduce future risks of high myopia and its associated eye conditions.

Managing Premyopia in Chinese Children Using Artificial Intelligence Assisted Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments Based Spectacle Lens: a Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Pre-myopia refers to a condition in which children have not yet developed myopia but exhibit insufficient hyperopic reserve (≤ +0.75 D). This is particularly relevant for young children aged 6 years and under; if their hyperopic reserve is depleted prematurely and they progress into the pre-myopia stage, the likelihood of developing myopia or even high myopia in the future becomes extremely high. Therefore, this study plans to conduct a parallel-design, open-label, single-center randomized controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of artificial intelligence-assisted defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) based spectacle lens in preventing and controlling myopia in pre-myopic children aged 3 to 6 years.

Virtual Far-sight Reading Device for Myopia Intervention Among Pre-myopic Children

This clinical trial wants to find out if the Virtual Far-sight Reading Device can help prevent or slow down myopia progression in children and teenagers with pre-myopia. We also want to know what makes this treatment work better for some participants and check for any eye or body-related side effects over time. Main questions: Can using the Virtual Far-sight Reading Device reduce the risk of myopia? Is the device safe to use every day for up to 6 months? What we'll do: Researchers will compare two groups of children: Group A: Uses the device for reading/writing (at least 1 hour daily) Group B: Does regular reading/writing without the device After 90 days, the groups will switch to see if the results stay the same. Participants will: * Have free eye checkups 3 times over 6 months * Use the device during homework time (if in the desk group) * Report any eye discomfort or problems

PROTECT-Study: Prospective Research on Optimizing Atropine Concentration Escalation for Children's Myopia Prevention

A prospective multicenter study design was adopted. Children aged 6-9 years with premyopia who met the criteria were screened and administered after completion of baseline assessment. Phase I: 0-24 weeks (0-6M). 0.01% atropine eye drops, once daily, at point in both eyes. Phase II: 24-48 weeks (6-12M). According to the rate of myopia progression at 0-24 weeks (6M), the atropine concentration was increased in steps; once daily, at point in both eyes. Group A: ( SE ≤ 0.25D), continued to maintain 0.01% atropine. Group B: (0.25D \< SE ≤ 0.375D), converted to 0.02% atropine. Group C: ( SE \> 0.375D), converted to 0.04% atropine. Followed up 5 times (0, 3, 6, 9, 12 months), collected refractive, ocular axis, intraocular pressure and other data, and recorded adverse events and cost information synchronously. Statistical analysis was carried out by covariance analysis and multivariate model, and pharmacoeconomic evaluation and drug proportion analysis were carried out.

Early-Onset Myopia Intervention Project

The prevalence of myopia among children has been increasing year by year, which has become a globle public health issue. Studies have shown that defocusing lenses and atroping eyedrops can control the progression of myopia, but there is little evidence of its efficacy in myopia intervention of young pre-schoolers who will face a greater risk of progression to high myopia later in life. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of spectacle lenses with highly aspherical lenslets (Essilor's Stellest) , as well as 0.01% and 0.05% low concentration atropine eyedrops in myopia intervention among young children aged 3-6.
