MiSight 1 Day Contact Lenses for Near-sightedness
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests MiSight 1 Day contact lenses to ensure their safety for children who are near-sighted, meaning they have difficulty seeing distant objects. The main goal is to confirm the safety of these daily disposable lenses for children. Kids aged 8 to 12 who need glasses for clear distance vision and wish to try contact lenses might be suitable participants. The trial requires wearing these lenses for about 10 hours a day, six days a week. As an unphased trial, this study provides a unique opportunity for children to experience the benefits of contact lenses while contributing to important safety research.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
If you are taking medications that interfere with contact lens wear or using any drugs to control nearsightedness, you cannot participate in the study.
What prior data suggests that MiSight 1 Day contact lenses are safe for near-sightedness?
Research has shown that MiSight 1 Day contact lenses are safe and comfortable. These lenses have the most extensive data on safety and effectiveness among soft contact lenses for nearsightedness.
Studies confirm that MiSight 1 Day is the first and only contact lens approved by the FDA to slow the progression of nearsightedness in children aged 8-12. This approval is based on thorough research proving the lenses are safe for daily use.
In summary, MiSight 1 Day lenses are designed specifically for young users and have a strong safety record.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial?
Most treatments for near-sightedness, like glasses and standard contact lenses, work by correcting vision but don't address the progression of the condition. MiSight 1 Day contact lenses are unique because they are designed to slow down the progression of near-sightedness, also known as myopia, in children. These lenses use a special dual-focus design that not only corrects vision but also creates a treatment zone to reduce the growth of the eye that leads to worsening myopia. Researchers are excited about this treatment because it offers a potential dual benefit—clear vision today and healthier eyes in the future.
What is the effectiveness track record for MiSight 1 Day contact lenses for near-sightedness?
Research has shown that MiSight 1 Day contact lenses, which participants in this trial will use, can slow the worsening of near-sightedness (myopia) in children. Studies have found that these lenses reduce the progression of myopia by 59%, meaning children's vision changes less over time. They also slow the eye's growth by 52%, helping to maintain healthier eyes. Over six years, children using MiSight 1 Day lenses demonstrated less eye growth compared to those not using them. This evidence supports MiSight 1 Day as an effective choice for managing near-sightedness in kids.678910
