Discussion workshop: Becoming a myopia management detective – solving practice-based cases
The College of Optometrists guidance was updated in December 2023 to make myopia management part of the core skills of an optometrist, and ABDO guidance also makes clear that myopia management is a key skill of a dispensing optician. Therefore, more myopic patients will be coming in for return appointments having been recommended myopia management previously. This session explores scenarios where the patient has returned and investigates how ECPs can use their detective skills to analyse the patient’s individual situation to be able to provide the correct advice and myopia management solution going forward.
Learning outcome(s):
The ability to communicate to the patient about progression and stability with and without myopia management treatment (s.2)
An understanding of how to improve patient compliance with good communication and the impact of patient compliance on success (s.2)
An understanding of the importance of history and symptoms when conducting myopia management examinations (s.2)
An understanding the appropriate assessments to complete as part of a myopia management examination (s.7).
