Defocus-Enhanced vs. Single Vision Spectacles in Myopia Control Visual Function Training

April 22, 2025 updated by: Beijing Visionly Plus Eye Hospital

Comparative Study of Visual Function Training With Defocus-Enhanced Spectacles vs. Single Vision Spectacles on Myopia Control in Children

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness of vision function training using defocus-enhanced spectacles (DIMS) versus single vision spectacles combined with vision function training in controlling myopia progression in children aged 6-18 years.
