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:

  • Myopic children aged 6 to 12 years. Myopia of the 6 to 8-year-olds: -1.00 to -4.75 D spherical component and up to -2.50 D of regular astigmatism. Myopia of the 9 to 12-year-olds: -2.00 to -4.75 D spherical component and up to -2.50 D of regular astigmatism.
  • Anisometropia < 1,5 D cycloplegic spherical equivalent refractive error.
  • Best corrected visual acuity: Age 6 to 8 (inclusive) years: 0.8 Snellen (equivalent to ≥ 3/5 letter on the 0.8 line = 78 ETDRS letters). Age 9 to 12 years: 1.0 Snellen (equivalent to ≥ 3/5 letter on the 1.0 line = 83 ETDRS letters)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Manifest or latent squint.
  • Contraindications to the use of OKL comprising keratoconus, chronic allergic conjunctivitis and keratoconjunctivitis sicca.
  • Previous eye surgery.
  • Chronic eye disease demanding daily use of eye drops.
  • Non-compliance to eye examinations

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose is to compare the myopia control efficacy of Ortho-K lenses (OKL) and Defocus (DIMS) spectacles in Danish myopic children aged 6-12 years. It is a clinical randomized non-inferiority trial, where the participants are randomly assigned to either OKL or DIMS spectacles. The participants are followed during 18 months of therapy. The hypotheses: There is no statistically significant difference between the myopia control efficacy between OKL and DIMS spectacles. Larger pupil size is positively correlated to treatment efficacy for both devises. Increasing choroidal thickness during early treatment is positively correlated to treatment efficacy for both devises. There is no difference in vision related quality of life between the two groups.
