April 29, 2026 updated by: SightGlass Vision, Inc.

Clinical Assessment of DOT Spectacle Lenses in Chinese Children

This is a randomized, controlled, evaluator-blinded, multicenter, two-arm parallel group clinical trial of 12-months duration to evaluate the continued safety and efficacy of Diffusion Optics Technology (DOT) spectacle lenses by comparing to single vision, impact-resistant spectacle lenses in reducing the progression of juvenile myopia in children of Chinese origin.
