Overview
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the short-term changes in the eye structure while wearing two types of lenslet-based myopia control lenses over a period of 6 months in children aged 6 to 13 years with myopia. The main question it aims to answer is:
- How the eye responds, at each timepoint, to the two myopia control lenses by evaluating:
- Change in axial length
- Change in choroidal thickness
Participants will:
* Wear the study spectacles
* Visit Essilor R\&D Centre for follow-up sessions
