About this study
Official title: Retrospective Study of Photobiomodulation Therapy on Myopia Control With Airdoc Red Light at Wavelength of 650nm
Photobiomodulation therapy, that is, Low-level red-light technology provides a new and innovative myopia control approach. This strategy enables relatively high energies of light to be delivered at much shorter durations of exposure to induce the myopia control effect. The efficacy of the low-level red-light technology has been proven in a Chinese populationb for the recent 3 years with evidence based papers and amazing results. However, there's not yet evidence to demonstrate the relationship between the dose response effect of photobiomodulation therapy on myopia control at the different age lever.
Read the detailed description
Previous trial has demonstrated that 3-minutes per session twice a day repeated low-level red-light treatment at the irridiance of 2.3mW(2.0~2.5mW) controlled 87.7% of refraction progression and 76.8% of axial length elongation when the time of compliance to the treatment was 75%. Retrospective analyze other irriadance of 1.2mW, 0.6mW and 0.37mW culturally diverse groups will confirm and translate this technology into a solution for myopia control globally.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Airdoc device of red light for MyopiaDevice
Also called low lever laser therapy, photobiomodulation therapy, low lever light therapy
This light is Narrow-Band, Long-Wavelength Lighting with three different illumination (400lux, 800lux, 1200lux) or irridiance (1.2mW, 0.6mW, 0.37mW) respectively. And the wavelength is 650nm. It allows biocular therapy.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Moderate irradiance of PBM therapy to myopia | Experimental | The PBM therapy irradiance is about 0.60mW. It is asked subjects to look at the light binocularly with fusion through the pupils with natural pupils. The distance between the light and the pupils is about 5~10cm. The treatment of each session is 3 minutes and twice daily administration while the interval time between two session is equal or larger than 4 hours with twice daily administration. Receives: Device: Airdoc device of red light for Myopia |
| Extra low irradiance PBM therapy group | Sham comparator | The PBM therapy irradiance is about 0.37mW. It is asked subjects to look at the light binocularly with fusion through the pupils with natural pupils. The distance between the light and the pupils is about 5~10cm. The treatment of each session is 3 minutes and twice daily administration while the interval time between two session is equal or larger than 4 hours with twice daily administration. Receives: Device: Airdoc device of red light for Myopia |
| high lever PBM therapy group | Experimental | The PBM therapy irradiance is about 1.20mW. It is asked subjects to look at the light binocularly with fusion through the pupils with natural pupils. The distance between the light and the pupils is about 5~10cm. The treatment of each session is 3 minutes and twice daily administration while the interval time between two session is equal or larger than 4 hours with twice daily administration. Receives: Device: Airdoc device of red light for Myopia |
| Control | No intervention | Without PBM therapy group. |

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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Axial length shortening comparing to that value of baseline (mm) (time frame: 12-month). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05957458, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 24 Jul 2023.
