This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of dual-focus soft contact lenses in controlling rapid myopia progression in adults through a randomized controlled trial. By applying myopia control measures to the adult population, we hope to provide scientific evidence for the effective control of adult myopia progression and offer insights into the understanding of myopia progression during early adulthood.
It has long been believed that the progression of myopia mainly occurs during the elementary to high school stages. However, some studies and clinical practice suggest that a considerable proportion of adults still experience myopia progression in their adulthood, especially in those who have prolonged near work or screen usage time. At present, there is insufficient evidence on whether these population needs myopia control intervention. Most adults experiencing myopia progression do not receive appropriate myopic intervention measures, leading to an increase of dioptre, which may affect the quality of daily life, and raise the risk of high myopia and blinding myopia complications. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of dual-focus soft contact lenses in controlling rapid myopia progression in adults through a randomized controlled trial. By applying myopia control measures to the adult population, we hope to provide scientific evidence for the effective control of adult myopia progression and offer insights into the understanding of myopia progression during early adulthood.
