The Effectiveness and Safety of Low-intensity Single-wavelength Red Light in Controlling High Myopia in Children and Adolescents:A Randomized, Controlled, Multicenter Clinical Trial

November 15, 2023 updated by: XuYan, Shanghai Eye Disease Prevention and Treatment Center

Objective: To study the effectiveness and safety of low-intensity single wavelength red light in controlling high myopia in children and adolescents.

Methods: Subject population: Children aged 3-16 years who have high myopia. Sample size: 190 subjects were planned to be enrolled and assigned to the test or control group in a 1:1 ratio.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Design: The trial was a randomized, controlled, multicenter clinical trial. A total of 190 children aged 3-16 years with high myopia were selected and divided into 95 cases in the test group and 95 cases in the control group. The test group was treated with the Eyesing Instrument developed by Suzhou Industrial Park Zoguan Medical Equipment Co. and conventional optometry. The safety and efficacy of the low-energy laser device in the test group were evaluated by comparing the changes in myopia between the two groups during the observation period. Subjects were screened after signing the informed consent form (performed as early as 7 days before the randomization), and the examination used for screening could use the results of eye examinations performed within 1 week at our hospital, and they were enrolled after confirming that they met the inclusion criteria. On the same day, the grouping was done by randomization, and the glasses were prescribed or the glasses were prescribed in combination with the device according to the grouping results. Visits were performed at 30± 14 days, 90± 14 days, 180± 14 days, 270± 14 days, and 365± 14 days

Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: efficacy
Including Primary outcome: changes in axial length of the eye. Secondary outcome: Equivalent spherical lens variation Other indicators: ① Changes in visual acuity with lenses, corrected visual acuity, and intraocular pressure.② Observation of changes in corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, ciliary body thickness, and crystal thickness.Observation of fundus tissue structure of macula and peri-optic disc area. Observation of fundus choroidal/retinal thickness.Adherence index: frequency of device use.
Eyesing Instrument developed by Suzhou Industrial Park Zoguan Medical Equipment Co. and conventional optometry.
Active Comparator: safety

Description of safety parameters: Adverse events, device defects during the test.

Method and time selection for evaluation, recording, and analysis of safety parameters. Adverse events and device defects were recorded from the beginning of each subject's enrollment to the end of the group for evaluation. Safety indicators:① Incidence of allergic reactions.② Posterior image time more than 5 minutes.③ The decrease of near vision.④ The grade of side effects such as self-induced photophobia and blurred vision.⑤ Elevated intraocular pressure, headache, nausea, and vomiting, etc.
