Effect of a Myopia Control Lens on the Astigmatism in Children

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

Treatment and study plan

Lenslet-based myopia control spectacle lens

Device

Device Details:

The myopia control spectacle lens utilized in this study features a lenslet-based design (incorporating a highly aspherical lenslet configuration). In this specific device, the lenslet are located in concentric rings.

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

    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
