調査の概要
状態
詳細な説明
This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with three parallel groups. The study was conducted at schools and the Universities in Faisalabad, Pakistan. The total study duration was almost one year (July 2025 to May 2026), with each participant undergoing atleast 3 months of active treatment with 3 follow ups. The sample size was 30 participants per group (total N=90), after drop put of patients, calculated using G*Power (repeated measures ANOVA, 3 groups × 4 time points, medium effect size f=0.25, α=0.05, power=0.8). Simple random sampling was used, with participants allocated to groups using an online research randomizer. Inclusion criteria: axial myopia (high, moderate, or severe), age 8-20 years, both genders, willingness to wear glasses. Exclusion criteria:
other ametropia, contact lens users, prior myopia treatment, ocular or systemic disease, ocular surgery, non-cooperative patients. Lenslet group: Essilor Stellest spectacles with Highly Aspheric Lenslet Target technology, 1.6mm thickness, refractive index 1.56, UV 400nm protection, antireflective coating; worn all waking hours. Violet filter group: plastic lenses with 420nm violet excitation filter; worn 3 hours daily (11 AM to 2 PM) to align with circadian rhythm. Control group: single vision lenses (refractive index 1.56). Primary outcome measures: change in axial length (measured by ocular biometer) and change in cycloplegic refraction. Secondary outcome measures: visual acuity (LogMAR chart), contrast sensitivity (Vistech chart). Follow-up assessments at 3, 6, and 9 months. Statistical analysis: repeated measures Linear mixed model using SPSS version 26 to compare within-group and between-group changes.

実験的:Lenslet Spectacles (HALT Technology
Participants receive Essilor Stellest spectacle lenses featuring HALT (Highly Aspheric Lenslet Target) anf violet filter glasses technology.
Lenses have 1.6mm thickness, refractive index 1.56,
UV 400.
Participants are instructed to wear glasses throughout all waking hours for 9 months and for VF atleast 3ours.
|
The lenslet spectacles are specially designed spectacle lenses featuring HALT (Highly Aspheric Lenslet Target) technology manufactured by Essilor International (Serial Number: 72426930).
The lens design includes a clear distance zone in the center with peripheral areas providing single vision correction.
Technical specifications: 5H green covering, multi-dimensional pattern, 1.6mm thickness, refractive index 1.56,
UV 400nm protection, antireflective coating.
Participants are instructed to wear the spectacles throughout all waking hours.
Each participant receives a new pair at baseline.
No adjustments are made during the 12-month treatment period unless vision changes require prescription update.

|
実験的:Violet Excitation Filter Glasses
Participants receive prescription glasses with violet excitation filter (420 nm wavelength, CR-39 material).
Participants are instructed to wear glasses for 3 hours daily (11 AM to 2 PM) for 12 months to align with circadian rhythm.
|
The violet excitation filter glasses are prescription glasses incorporating a violet light filter with wavelength 420 nm (range 360-420 nm).
Material: CR-39.
Filter intensity: 700 nm.
Wavelength verified using spectrophotometer (standard error ±0.1 to 1 nm).
Participants are instructed to wear the glasses for 3 hours daily, specifically from 11 AM to 2 PM, to optimize impact on circadian rhythm while avoiding disruption of sleep patterns.
Each participant receives a new pair at baseline.
The filter is integrated into the prescription lenses.
|
|
アクティブコンパレータ:Single Vision Lenses
Participants receive standard single vision spectacle lenses (SVS index 1.56).
Participants are instructed to wear glasses throughout all waking hours for 12 months.
|
Standard single vision spectacle lenses (SVS index 1.56) with no myopia control features.
These are conventional prescription glasses that correct refractive error but do not incorporate lenslet technology or violet filtering.
Participants are instructed to wear the glasses throughout all waking hours.
Each participant receives a new pair at baseline.

|
Change in Axial Length
時間枠:Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9
|
Axial length (mm) measured using an A-SCAN biometer (Scanmate 677AB).
The measurement represents the distance from the corneal apex to the retinal pigment epithelium.
Three measurements are taken for each eye and averaged.
This is a continuous anatomical measurement with no theoretical minimum or maximum score.
Higher values indicate greater ocular elongation, which is associated with worsening myopia progression.

Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9

Change in Cycloplegic Refraction
時間枠:Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9
|
Cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction (SER), measured in diopters (D) using retinoscopy (Welch Allyn) after cycloplegia.
SER is calculated as sphere + (cylinder/2).
This is a continuous measurement with no theoretical minimum or maximum value.
A decrease in SER (more negative values) reflects progression of myopia, while an increase in SER (less negative or more positive values) reflects reduced myopia or a shift toward hyperopia.

Change in Visual Acuity
時間枠:Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9
|
Visual acuity measured using the Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (LogMAR) Visual Acuity Chart (Precision Vision) at 4 m, 2 m, and 1 m.
LogMAR scores typically range from approximately -0.30 (better visual acuity) to 1.60 (poorer visual acuity), although values may extend beyond these limits.
Lower scores represent better visual acuity outcomes, and higher scores represent worse visual acuity outcomes.

Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9
|
|
Change in Contrast Sensitivity
時間枠:Baseline, Month 3, Month 6, Month 9
|
Contrast sensitivity measured using the Vistech Contrast Sensitivity Test Chart (Precision Vision) at 1 meter.
Contrast sensitivity scores are reported in log contrast sensitivity units and typically range from 0.00 to approximately 2.25.
Higher scores represent better contrast sensitivity and visual performance, while lower scores represent poorer contrast sensitivity and visual performance.
