Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are individuals aged 8 years and older with specific refractive parameters suitable for the contact lenses.

Probably not a fit

Patients with ocular abnormalities, a history of corneal surgery, or certain eye conditions will not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This clinical study aims to assess the long-term effectiveness and safety of the Paragon CRT® 100 Contact Lenses in reducing myopic refractive power. It consists of two phases: a prospective phase that follows participants for a minimum of 12 months to evaluate effectiveness and safety, and a retrospective phase that reviews long-term safety data. Participants will be required to comply with a specific wear and visit schedule throughout the study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a safe and effective option for managing myopia in patients.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using contact lenses for myopia management, indicating potential success for this approach.
