About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Myopia

Eligibility Criteria

6 Years - 12 Years (Child)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Children aged 6 to 12 years The cycloplegic spherical equivalent error (SER) is -6D to 1D (> -6D, ≤1D) in both eyes Astigmatism of 2.5 D or less (≤2.5D) Willing to participate in the study and sign the informed consent form Exclusion Criteria: Using other myopia interventions or stopped using them for less than three months, including but not limited to atropine eye drops or orthokeratology lens With anisometropia (difference in sphere between two eyes was 1.5D or greater), strabismus, or amblyopia With refractive media opacification (keratopathy, lens opacity, etc.) Allergy to cycloplegia drugs

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

650 nm low-level red-light, plus single vision spectacle lenses

Control

Arm Description

Children in the treatment group are expected to receive 6 minutes irradiation of 650 nm low-level red-light daily, divided into two times a day, each lasting for 3 minutes. Single vision spectacle lenses are allowed for myopic children.

Single vision spectacle lenses are allowed for myopic children. No intervention was given.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in axial length
Use an optical biometer to measure the axial length.
Change in spherical equivalent error
Children's pupil were dilated using Mydrin-P eye drops, and then the refractive error was measured using an autorefractor. the two measurements (axial length and spherical equivalent error) will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value through the following way: axial enlongation will be defined as progress in myopia, decrease in spherical equivalent error will be defined as progress in myopia too.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Choroid thickness
Use an enhanced-depth imaging technique (based on Optical coherence tomography )
Change in steep keratometry
Use an optical biometer
Change in flat keratometry
Use an optical biometer
Change in length thickness
Use an optical biometer
Change in anterior chamber depth
Use an optical biometer
Change in central corneal thickness
Use an optical biometer

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
A multicenter randomized controlled trial, evaluating the efficacy and safety of 650nm low-level red-light irradiation for myopia control and prevention in children. Participants included children(aged 6 to 12 years, spherical equivalent error of 0.5D or below) who are already myopic at recruitment, and those who are of Emmetropia or low hyperopia.
Detailed Description
This multicenter randomized controlled trial will be conducted in three hospitals: Beijing Tongren Hospital, and another two subcenters. The whole study will last for five years.The investigators will perform data analysis at 6 months follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up, three-year follow-up, four-year follow-up and the end of the study. The intervention measure used will be 650 nm low-level red-light. This kind of intervention will be integrated into a headworn device. This device could be used for treatment of myopia or amblyopia, and is safe for the eyes and has been verified by the Chinese market supervision and administration department.
