Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to quantify the effectiveness of Coopervision MiSight contact lenses in slowing the rate of myopia progression in university students.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: MiSight contact lenses
  • Device: Proclear contact lenses
N/A

Detailed Description

MiSight contact lenses have been shown to be a safe and effective way of managing myopia progression in children aged 8-12 years. However, myopic progression is not limited to children of this age group and MiSight lenses have also been shown to be effective in older children aged 11-16 years. There is evidence that progression also occurs in university students. We are therefore investigating the effectiveness of this intervention in a group of UK-based University students.

Yes
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Be a myopic students studying at university

  • Be aged 18-21 years at the start of the study

  • Show evidence of recent myopia progression prior to commencement of Stage 2 of the study.

  • Have read the patient information sheet and be happy to sign the consent forms

  • Be willing to adhere to the visit schedule and wearing times described in this protocol

  • Agree to lens wearing times of at least 10 hours per day, 6 days per week

  • Agree to accept either the control or test lens as assigned by the randomisation

  • Have BCVA of +0.10 logMAR or better in each eye

Exclusion Criteria:
