This study is looking into whether specialized soft contact lenses can help slow down nearsightedness (myopia) in children. Nearsightedness happens when the eye grows too long, and while glasses or contacts can fix blurry vision, they don't stop the eye from getting longer. This extra eye growth can lead to serious eye problems later in life. This study will compare two types of specialized soft contact lenses, called "specialized soft contact lens 1" and "specialized soft contact lens 2," to see if wearing them daily can slow down this eye growth. Researchers also want to understand how well children can wear these lenses and if there are any safety concerns. You might be able to join if you are between 7 and 12 years old, have a certain level of nearsightedness, and are willing to wear the lenses for at least 10 hours a day, six days a week.

Study design

This is an interventional study planning to enroll 80 participants. It is a randomized controlled clinical trial where participants will wear daily-use, daily-disposable soft contact lenses.

What's involved

Participants will wear specialized soft contact lenses for a minimum of 10 hours per day, at least six days a week, for one year. Measurements of refractive error and axial length will be taken at the start and after 12 months.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Participants will be followed for 12 months, with primary endpoints measured at baseline and 12 months.
