Description
Tsz Wing Leung and colleagues track special glasses for short-sighted children in 2026. The lenses are called DIMS lenses. They slow eye growth in past trials. This study follows the first trial group. Follow-up runs past eight years.
Sixty young adults took part in all. Their mean age was near 20 years. Wear time averaged 9.4 years. Eye length grew far less with DIMS wear. The modeled cut was 65 percent. Prescription change showed no firm split, though. The gap puzzles the authors. No live control group was kept. More work must sort the mismatch out.
