Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this exploratory clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a test spectacle lens (standard single vision lens (SVL) during first year, and standard myopia control lens (MCL) in second year), designed with passive red-light emission, for the control of myopia progression in myopic children age 6 to 11 years old, both male and female, with no systemic or ocular anomalies. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does the test spectacle lens designed with passive red-light emission provide significant myopia control effect to children?

Researchers will compare the standard SVL designed with passive red-light emission to SVL (first year) and MCL designed with passive red-light emission to MCL (second year) to see if the test spectacle lens work to slow down myopia progression.

Participants will:

* Wear the study spectacles
* Visit Essilor R\&D Centre for follow-up sessions

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

This is a 2-year, randomized, double-masked, contralateral, exploratory clinical trial with the objective to evaluate the efficacy of two test lenses designed with passive red-light emission in the control of myopia progression. The subject starts by wearing standard SVL, designed with passive red-light emission in one eye, and standard SVL in the contralateral eye. After 1 year, the eye wearing SVL designed with passive red-light emission will be replaced with standard MCL, and the contralateral eye will be replaced with standard MCL designed with passive red-light emission. At the end of the 2-year period, each eye would be exposed to lenses designed with passive red-light emission for 1 year each. There will be a total of 11 study visits with follow-up periods at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Children equal to or greater than 6 years old and less than 11 years at the time of signing informed consent.
* Corrected spherical equivalent refraction (SER) between -0.75 D and -5.00 D with astigmatism not more than 2.50 D.
* Difference in SER (Anisometropia) between two eyes should not exceed 1.00 D.
* Best corrected visual acuity better than or equal to +0.10 log MAR (20/25 or better with Snellen).
* Be in good general health, based on his/her and parent's/guardian's knowledge.
* Agree to wear spectacles for \>12 hours/day and at least 6 days/week.
* Willingness and ability to participate in investigation for 2 years and attend scheduled visits.

Exclusion Criteria

* Any ocular or systemic pathologies known to affect refractive status (e.g. keratoconus, diabetes, Down's syndrome etc.)
* Any binocular vision anomalies
* Amblyopia
* Use of prior myopia control treatment like specialized myopia control spectacles and contact lenses at least in the previous one month.
* Current use of ocular or systemic medications which, in the investigator's opinion, may significantly affect pupil size, accommodation or refractive state.
* Participation in any clinical investigation within 30 days of the baseline visit.
