Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
ACUVUE OASYS for PRESBYOPIA contact lenses prescribed by a registered optometrist to children with myopia will be worn in one eye for 10 hours a day for one year. These lenses will be provided to participants by the study. The lens power will be determined at the discretion of the optometrist. These lenses will be in different packaging than lenses for the other eye.
Intervention code [1] 316673 0
Treatment: Devices
Comparator / control treatment
MiSight 1 Day contact lenses prescribed by a registered optometrist to children with myopia will be worn in the contralateral eye for 10 hours a day for one year. This lens has a different design and material compared to the intervention lens and will be provided to participants by the study. The lens power will be determined at the discretion of the optometrist. These lenses will be in different packaging than lenses for the other eye.

Efficacy
Statistical methods / analysis
72 participants will be recruited assuming a 20% drop out rate.. A total of 60 participants provides 80% power to reject the null hypothesis that ACUVUE OASYS for PRESBYOPIA is inferior to MiSight at a 0.05 level of significance, assuming a treatment difference of 0.0 mm, a standard deviation of 0.12 mm and a noninferiority margin of 0.05 mm.
