NANilay AkagünAcıbadem University UAUğur Emrah AltıparmakMemorial Ankara Hospital

Key Points

This research aims to compare the effectiveness of DIMS and Myopi-X lenses in controlling myopia in children.
Conducted a retrospective study
Evaluated effectiveness over 12 months
Assessed refractive progression and axial elongation
DIMS lenses reduced refractive progression more than Myopi-X lenses
Axial elongation was significantly less with DIMS
Baseline axial length was identified as a key predictor for growth

Abstract

DIMS spectacle lenses were more effective than Myopi-X and SV lenses in reducing both refractive progression and axial elongation over 12 months. Baseline AL was a key determinant of axial growth, supporting the use of individualized risk assessment in pediatric myopia management.
