Study summary

The goal of this observational study is to learn whether different types of eyeglasses prescription and different types of lenses change how close teenagers hold objects when looking at them up close. The study includes adolescents who are non-myopic and adolescents who are myopic and wear either single-vision lenses or lenses slowing down myopia progression.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do teenagers in these three groups use different average working distances (eye-to-object distance) during everyday tasks?

Does wearing Essilor® Stellest® lenses change working distance compared with wearing single-vision lenses?

Researchers will compare the three groups to see if their working distances differ.

Participants will:

Complete an initial optometric eye examination.

Come for a second visit where they perform everyday activities while wearing a motion-capture system that measures how they move and how far they hold objects.

  • Experimental
    myopic teenagers wearing Essilor® Stellest® lenses

    Device: Ophtalmic measurements · Behavioral: Visuo-postual measurements

  • Experimental

    Worn lenses do not have a myopia-control effect

    Device: Ophtalmic measurements · Behavioral: Visuo-postual measurements

Interventions

  • DeviceOphtalmic measurements

    Participants will undergo a standard ophthalmic examination during the initial visit. All procedures are non-invasive, non-ionising, and conducted using devices routinely employed in clinical ophthalmic practice.

  • BehavioralVisuo-postual measurements

    The behavioral part of the study consists of a set of tasks designed to assess eye movements and visual behavior in both controlled and ecological conditions. Participants perform everyday activities while eye movements and body motion are recorded using an eye tracker and motion capture systems.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Working distance using motion capture system

    Quantitative assessment of working distance in meters during near vision tasks using a motion capture system

    Time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after enrollment

Secondary outcomes

  1. Gaze behavior during near vision tasks accessed with an eye-tracking system

    Assessment of eye movements (spatial coordinates) during near vision tasks

    Time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after enrollment

  2. Posture, eye-head coordination during near-vision tasks (with motion capture system)

    Quantitative evaluation of postural behavior (spatial coordinates of body parts) while performing near vision tasks.

    Time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after enrollment

  3. Correlation coefficient (R2) between optometric profile and near-vision behavior

    Statistical analysis of the association between participants' optometric characteristics and their near vision behavioral patterns.

    Time frame: From enrollment to 3 months after enrollment
