Discussion workshop: Contact lens retention detention
Join us as we look at reasons as to why patients may drop out of contact lens wear and what delegates need to consider to ensure maximum retention of contact lens patients. The session will cover three cases where delegates will identify various possible reasons that may lead to discontinuation of contact lens wear and how to address them before they become a concern.
