Effect of defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses on myopia progression in children: a retrospective analysis in a German real-life clinical setting
Eyes with moderate baseline AL and of older children showed treatment success after 12 months of DIMS treatment. Eyes with a high baseline AL and of younger children showed treatment success in a smaller proportion, therefore combination treatment should be considered. In future studies, males and females should be assessed separately.
