Study summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate over a one-year period the effect of myopia control spectacle lenses on astigmatism in children aged 6 to 13 years with myopia and astigmatism.

The main question it aims to answer is:

- How does the eye respond at each timepoint to the myopia control lenses?

By evaluating: the change in astigmatism (cylinder) after one year?

Participants will:

Wear the assigned study spectacles daily

Visit the Essilor R\&D Centre for scheduled follow-up sessions

    • participate in trial for at least 12 months.
    • attend scheduled visits.
    • not to be involved in other myopia control treatments concurrently.
  • No history of any myopia control interventions (i.e., myopia control spectacle lenses, myopia control contact lenses, orthokeratology lenses or atropine, etc.)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • History or presence of:

    • An ocular disease
    • Strabismus
    • Amblyopia
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Study arms

  • Experimental
    Myopia Control Lens Prototype

    Each participant will be fitted with a prototype lenslet-based spectacle lens to be worn continuously throughout the 12-month study period. Following the baseline and dispensing visit, participants will undergo follow-up assessments at 3, 6, and 12 months. These intervals will monitor change of myopia and astigmatism through standard refraction and ocular biometry measurements. Device Details: The myopia control spectacle lens utilized in this study features a lenslet-based design (incorporating a highly aspherical lenslet configuration). The lenses will be dispensed and worn daily for the duration of the 12-month evaluation period.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in the Cylinder value through non cycloplegic autorefraction

    Time frame: 12 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change from baseline in the Keratometry value measured using a Keratometer

    Time frame: 12 months

  2. Change from baseline in the Axial Length value measured using a biometer

    Time frame: 12 months

  3. Quality of Life while wearing the study lenses measured through Questionnaire

    PREP 2 questionnaire: Pediatric Refractive Error Profile 2 The questionnaire is designed to assess the vision-specific quality of life in children who wear glasses or contact lenses. It covers seven areas: Vision, Symptoms, Handling, Peer Perception, Activities, Appearance, and Overall. The Child form is a 5 point agreement scale ranging from: Strongly Disagree, Disagree, Neutral, Agree, Strongly Agree The parent form is a 10 point agreement scale ranging from 1=likes and 10=dislikes

    Time frame: Baseline, 6 and 12 months

Other outcomes

  1. Safety: Change from baseline in the Axial Length value measured using a biometer

    Time frame: 3 and 6 months

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Start is estimated for Sep 2026; primary completion for Feb 2028, 17 months later.

Of 106 industry-sponsored interventional studies with no phase under Astigmatism, half reached primary completion within 7 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 2 and three quarters within 19. This study's planned 17 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 183 studies reached it within 12 months; a quarter within 4 and three quarters within 26.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 15, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
