Inhibition of Myopia Progression With Optical Devices

This observational study aims to determine whether optical devices designed to slow myopia progression and/or environmental factors can prevent myopia progression in the pediatric and adolescent myopic population. The study aims to answer the following questions: 1. How does myopia progression change with age while wearing myopia progression control glasses? 2. How does myopia progression change while wearing myopia progression-control glasses when environmental factors, such as time spent outdoors and place of residence, are taken into account? 3. How does myopia progression change at different ages while wearing myopia progression control glasses given a family history of myopia? This will be a self-controlled observational study. Participants who are myopic after cycloplegic refraction will be prescribed DIMS glasses. DIMS stands for "defocus incorporated multiple segments," a specialized optical technology used in spectacle lenses to slow nearsightedness progression in children. Patients will keep a diary of their subjective symptoms and environmental factors, e.g., time spent outdoors and screen time. Patients will visit the clinic once every six months for checkups and the following tests: * Best corrected visual acuity test * Stereopsis * Automatic refractometry * Bulbar axial length measurement In a follow-up study, researchers will compare myopia progression with environmental and baseline factors to learn about the long-term effects of DIMS lenses on myopia progression.

Photolithography Microstructure Myopia Management Lenses in Preventing and Controlling Myopia in Children and Adolescents

Evaluate the effectiveness of different lithographic microstructured myopia management lenses in controlling the progression of myopia in children and adolescents, as well as the safety and comfort of wearing them. Explore effective defocus microlens designs for myopia control and the feasibility of applying lithographic microstructured myopia management lenses in myopia prevention and control.

Effect of MiYOSMART iQ Spectacle Lenses on Myopia Progression in Children

This prospective, single-center study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MiYOSMART iQ spectacle lenses with DIMS (Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments) and Triple Enhanced Design (TED) technology in slowing myopia progression in children aged 8-11 years. 35 children with myopia (spherical equivalent -0.5 to -6.0 D) will be prescribed MiYOSMART iQ lenses and followed for 6 months. The study will compare changes in spherical equivalent refraction and axial length against a historical control group (n=35) using ANCOVA. Secondary outcomes include measurements of peripheral refraction and contrast sensitivity at the first prescription. The study hypothesis is that wearing MiYOSMART iQ lenses for 6 months significantly slows myopia progression compared to single-vision spectacle correction.
