SEED-LVPEI Myopia Study (SLIMS)

September 23, 2021 updated by: Dr. Pavan Verkicharla, L.V. Prasad Eye Institute

Efficacy of SEED's Novel Anti-myopia Contact Lens (Daily Disposable) in Controlling Myopia Progression

This randomized clinical trial study aims to investigate the efficacy of novel SEED's EDOF based mid-lens design in controlling the myopia progression in

Indian children with these specific objectives:

  1. To investigate the efficacy of SEED's 1-day pure extended depth of focus lenses controlling myopia progression in Indian children through a one-year randomized clinical study.
  2. To investigate the role of SEED's 1-day pure extended depth of focus lenses in altering peripheral refraction of the eye to control myopia progression.
  3. To determine if there is any specific cohort that shows better efficacy in myopia control with 1-day pure extended depth of focus lenses based on central and peripheral optics (degree of myopia and optical parameters).
  4. To investigate the qualitative assessment of comfort and visual experience with the SEED's EDOF contact lenses through the questionnaire method.

Active, not recruiting

Conditions

Detailed Description

This prospective randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted in Myopia Research Lab, L V Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad and the study protocol will adhere to the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki. Participants will be recruited through advertisements in local print media (newspaper), approaching schools, through clinical referrals. Children will be assigned to either the control group or intervention group randomly based on computer-generated random numbers operated by the investigator. All participants will undergo a cycloplegic refractive error assessment after the instillation of tropicamide 1% eye drops (or cyclopentolate 1% eye drops in case of varying refractive error between objective and subjective values). Axial length and cycloplegic refractive measurements will be taken with using Lenstar LS900 biometer and Shin- Nippon autorefractor respectively for scheduled follow up and will be compared with the baseline parameters.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: SEED 1-dayPure EDOF soft contact lens
The participant will be requested to wear the daily disposable lens 8-10 hours per day and replaced daily. All participants will be followed for 12 months (followup visit schedule; 3 months, 6 months, 12 months) post-contact lens wear.
Centre-distance contact lens with peripheral add power working on extended depth of focus principle to control myopia
Sham Comparator: Single vision spectacle lens
The participant will be requested to wear the spectacle lens daily. All participants will be followed for 12 months (follow up visit schedule; 3 months, 6 months, 12 months) post spectacle lens wear.
These are the type of glasses that correct vision for a single distance

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Central refractive error changes
Time Frame: Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
  1. Changes (1 year) in spherical equivalent refractive error (dioptre) in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
  2. Changes (1 year) in spherical equivalent refractive error (dioptre) among different degrees of myopia in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
Axial length changes
Time Frame: Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
  1. Changes (1 year) in axial length (millimetre) in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
  2. Changes (1 year) in axial length (millimetre) among different degrees of myopia in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
Peripheral refractive error changes
Time Frame: Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
  1. Changes (1 year) in peripheral spherical equivalent refractive error (dioptre) of the individuals in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
  2. Changes (1 year) in peripheral spherical equivalent refractive error (dioptre) among different degrees of myopia in the intervention and control group from the baseline.
Data will be collected at baseline, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Qualitative assessment
Time Frame: Data will be collected at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
