Globally childhood myopia is on the increase. Eye care practitioners are the first point of contact for many parents and patients when learning about myopia and the benefits to long-term ocular health that may come about from a myopia management intervention. Compliance is a key part of success in any myopia management therapy. This presentation will show how improving and continued compliance in myopia management aligns with compliance in dentistry. The presentation will also discuss cases of non-compliance and how technology and improved communication improves compliance.

Myopia management is one of the most exciting and innovative areas of eye care today. This talk outlines the evidence surrounding the magnitude of the public health issue of myopia and the personal health and emotional impacts on our patients. The latest science behind the management of myopia will be presented and long-held practitioner beliefs on treatment efficacy and vision quality, potential rebound effects and challenges to paediatric contact lens wear will be dispelled. Exciting revolutionary new technology in a prototype soft contact lens for myopia management will be unveiled.

This lecture will discuss the growing prevalence of myopia on a global scale and how urgent intervention is required to manage this condition. It will cover the importance of clinicians detecting early signs of myopia, and discussing with their patients, the importance of myopia management and various methods available. Myopia carries a higher risk of certain sight-threatening conditions that many patients, and their parents, may not be aware of. The importance of axial length measurement in the detection and treatment of myopia will be covered and how best to convey this to patients and their parents.
