About this study

Official title: Effect of "eye" Education for Parents on Myopia Prevention and Control in Children

This is a randomized controlled trial aimed to explore the effect of behavioral interventions based on doctors' and nurses' health education on the onset and development of myopia in children's. Participants were randomly assigned to one of two groups: eye health intervention, or the control group. Intervention group's parents would reveive eye health education in response to their children's myopia progression at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months, while the control group did not receive any. Visual acuity, cycloplegic refraction, axial length, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item Scale were the main outcomes and measures.

Read the detailed description

After doctors' and nurses' education, parents would keep a diary to regulate the children's "Sedentary", "Sunshine", "Sleep", "Screen", and "Stress" that is, the "5S" eye education. To urging parents pay attention to the children's eye behavior every day, and targeted to children "eye" education to delay the occurrence and development of myopia and reduce the incidence of high myopia.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Eye Education InterventionBehavioural

    Doctors and nurses will educate parents about eye health in response to theirchild's myopia progression at baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months.

  • ControlBehavioural

    Parents in the control group will not receive eye health education informationfrom doctors and nurses.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Axial Length

    Ocular biometry was used for measuring the axial length, which is the physical distance between the anterior corneal pole and the retinal structure at the posterior pole.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months.

  2. Cycloplegic Refraction

    Cycloplegic refractive errors were measured with an autorefractor.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Visual acuity

    The visual acuity of the children is assessed through a self-administered vision test conducted by their guardians via WeChat mini program.

    Measured: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months.

  2. Anxiety Disorder Screening 7-item Scale

    Assessing changes in parents' anxiety before and after the intervention.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 month

  3. Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire

    Assessing changes in parent-child relationships before and after the intervention.

    Measured: Baseline, 6 month.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Shi-Ming Li, MD, PHD (+86-010-58269920, lishiming81@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Axial Length (time frame: Baseline, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Oct 2024.
