Main finding: At 2 years, change in spherical equivalent refraction and axial length in the MiSight contact lens was 39.3% and 36.0% less than in spectacles group respectively.
Study characteristics:
Name: “MiSight Assessment Study Spain (MASS). A 2-year randomized clinical trial”
Purpose: To compare myopia progression in MiSight soft contact lenses vs single-vision spectacles in children aged 8-12 years old.
