https://doi.org/10.33791/2222-4408-2020-3-5-18
Abstract
To ensure a reliable assessment of the efficacy of myopia control methods and their comparison, it is important that the studies are carried out according to identical protocols. Purpose. To analyze patient examination protocols used by different authors for assessing the efficacy of myopia control methods, and to evaluate the principles of forming the main (treatment) and control groups. Materials and methods. Domestic and foreign authors research works devoted to the assessment of myopia control methods were analyzed, most of which were randomized controlled studies. Results and Discussion. The authors propose their own protocol for evaluation of the efficacy of myopia control methods that includes methods for evaluating the results, recommended number (frequency) and duration of follow-up, represented as a checklist. Conclusion. The proposed protocol can be used for planning and executing a clinical research.
Conflict of interest: the authors are members of the editorial board of the journal and recused themselves from review process and from making decision regarding acceptance of this article.
