Detailed Description
High myopia has become a major public concern globally, which is characterized by excessive axial elongation of the eyeball. Axial elongation is accompanied by mechanical stretching and thinning of the choroid and sclera, causing vision-threatening complications. RLRL therapy is an emerging effective and safe therapy for myopia control. Previous clinical trials in China have observed clinically significant axial shortening after RLRL treatment.
The purpose of this study is to confirm and identify possible mechanism for axial length (AL) shortening after 12-month RLRL therapy in Chinese highly myopic children and teenagers aged 6-16 years. In addition to single vision spectacles, subjects will receive RLRL treatment at home under supervision of the parents according to a standard protocol. Axial length, visual acuity, cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction, intraocular pressure, slit lamp, optical coherence tomography, optical coherence tomography angiography and ultrawide-field optical coherence tomography will be measured at 1-, 3-, 6- and 12-month follow-up visits.

- Pathologic myopia with signs of macula-involving diffuse chorioretinal atrophy, patchy chorioretinal atrophy, macular atrophy, lacquer cracks, myopic choroidal neovascularization or Fuchs' spots.
- Strabismus and binocular vision abnormalities in either eye.
- Previous any intraocular surgery affecting refractive status.
- Other reasons, including but not limited to ocular or other systemic abnormalities, that the physician may consider inappropriate for enrolment.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence rate of axial length shortening >0.05 mm
Time Frame: 12 months
|
Incidence rate of axial length shortening > 0.05 mm is characterized as the ratio of number of participants with axial length shortening greater than 0.05 mm to the total number.
The IOL Master is used to measure axial length (mm).
|
12 months
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence rates of axial length shortening >0.10 mm and >0.20 mm
Time Frame: 12 months
|
Incidence rate of axial length shortening > 0.10 mm and 0.20 mm are characterized as the ratio of number of participants with axial length hortening greater than 0.10 mm and 0.20 mm to the total number.
The IOL Master is used to measure axial length (mm).
|
12 months
|
Magnitude of axial length shortening among shortened eyes
Time Frame: 12 months
|
Magnitude of axial length shortening is characterized as the magnitude of axial length reduction among axial shortened eyes.
The IOL Master is used to measure axial length (mm).
|
12 months
|
Changes in choroidal structural and perfusion parameters
Time Frame: 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Changes in choroidal structural and perfusion parameters are characterized as the difference between each follow-up visit and corresponding baseline values.
Swept-source optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography are used to measure choroidal structural and perfusion parameters.
|
1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Changes in retinal structures
Time Frame: 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Swept-source optical coherence tomography is used to measure retinal structures.
|
1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Changes in axial length and other biometric parameters
Time Frame: 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
The IOL Master is used to measure axial length and other biometric parameters, including corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth and white to white, etc. Change of each parameter is characterized as the difference between each follow-up visit and baseline values
|
1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Change of cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (Diopter)
Time Frame: 1, 3, 6 and 12 months
|
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent change (Diopter, D) is characterized as the difference between each follow-up visit and baseline values.
Refraction with full cycloplegia is performed with an autorefractor.
The data on spherical and cylindrical power and axis is automatically extracted from the autorefractor.
The spherical equivalent power (D) is calculated as the spherical power (D) plus half of the cylindrical power (D)
