Binocular Peripheral Myopic Defocus Using a Clinical Prototype Device

Effectiveness of Binocular Peripheral Myopic Projected Defocus on Ocular Biometrics Using a Clinical Prototype Device

Kubota Vision Inc. has developed a spectacle-like prototype device which is designed to be used as a light-based therapy to reduce myopia progression. In this study, we aim to observe the ocular biometric and refractive changes following binocular part-time wear of the clinical prototype device over a course of 12 months and compare that to 12 months of no clinical prototype device use (control).

Inclusion Criteria:

• Spherical equivalent -0.50 to -5.50 diopters
• visual acuity of at least 20/25 in each eye

Exclusion Criteria:

• history of ocular trauma or major eye surgery
• active ocular infection
• any prior history or participation in myopia control treatments within the past 3 months
