What are the requirements for participants in this clinical trial?
"This clinical trial is looking for 420 participants who are between the ages of 3 and 12 and have myopia. The following refractive correction criteria must be met: myopia within ± 0.50 D of the manifest refraction at the Screening Visit; cylinder power within ± 0.50 D of the manifest refraction at the Screening Visit; when cylinder power is < 1.00 D, axis within ± 15 degrees of the manifest refraction; when cylinder power is ≥ 1.00 D, axis within ± 5 degrees of the manifest refraction., Best-corrected distance visual acuity in current correction of 0."
Does this research involve seniors or are they restricted to a younger age group?
"The age requirements to participate in this particular trial are that applicants must be between 3 and 12 years old. Out of the 102 total clinical trials, 76 are for patients younger than 18 while 26 are for senior citizens."
