About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if contact lenses using Active Reconfiguration in Retinal Encoding of Spatio-Temporal (A.R.R.E.S.T.®) signal technology works to slow down the rate of myopia progression compared to single vision contact lenses in myopic children. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Do contact lenses using A.R.R.E.S.T.® technology slow down the rate of axial length growth? Do contact lenses using A.R.R.E.S.T.® technology slow down the rate of increase in myopic refractive error?

Researchers will compare contact lenses using A.R.R.E.S.T.® technology to a single vision contact lens.

Participants will:

Be randomly allocated to wear either contact lenses using A.R.R.E.S.T.® technology or single vision contact lenses.

Visit the clinic on seven occasions over a 12 month period.
