Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1.Age between 6 – 14 years inclusive at time of enrolment 2.Interested in wearing spectacles for 5 days/week and 6 hours/day 3.Best-corrected high contrast visual acuity based on manifest refraction of 0.10 logMAR (20/25, 6/7.6) or better in each eye. 4.Willing to swap the spectacle lenses as per the study requirements. 5.-5.00 D = spherical equivalent = -0.75 D and sphere component = -0.50 DS. 6.-1.50 DC = astigmatic component = 0 DC. 7.Spherical equivalent anisometropia = 1.00 D

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Current or prior use of any form of myopia control strategy. 2. Participant born earlier than 30 weeks or weighed less than 1500gm at birth. 3.Any ocular, systemic or neuro developmental conditions that may influence refractive error. 4.Manifest strabismus. 5.Any known ocular inflammation or infection.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Stage 1: To demonstrate superiority in reducing the rate of myopia progression as measured by the change axial length between each test and the control. Stage 3: To compare the rate of myopia progression as measured by axial length between S.T.O.P.® films used with a dynamic optical signal against a static optical signal. Timepoint: 1 month, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months and 18 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Stage 1: To compare the change in cycloplegic spherical equivalent autorefraction and visual performance (subjective data and visual acuity) between each test and control. Stage 3: To compare the change in cycloplegic spherical equivalent autorefraction and visual performance between S.T.O.P.® films used with a dynamic optical signal against a static optical signal. Timepoint: 42 months
