Evaluation of the efficacy in decreasing myopia progression of the proposed ophthalmic lens prototypes.
A prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical trial (RCT) to analyze the effect of a new ophthalmic lens prototype on myopia progression. The follow-up period to evaluate the efficacy of the lens will be 3 years including a total of 5 visits. The sample will consist of a group of 92 myopic children who will be randomly assigned to one of the treatment groups: * Control group who will receive standard monofocal lenses. * Treatment group who will wear a prototype lens based on peripheral positive defocus.

Axial Lenght Increase
Axial length was measured with the IOL Master® optical biometer (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) and axial length growth was calculated by subtracting the axial length measurement after one year of treatment and the axial length at the initial visit.
