Back in 2017, CooperVision presented a 60-minute lecture on myopia management called ‘Time to stop talking and start doing’. Six years on, this presentation will reflect on how far the profession has come, what we’ve learned and what’s yet to overcome to make sure that no myopic child is left untreated. What more can we all do to speed up the changes needed within the profession to slow down the progression of myopia?

This four part webinar series has been designed as a journey, ensuring that you have time across the year to embed your learning and new habits in between; however, the webinars can also be attended as standalone sessions that you feel might support a specific need.

This session will review the major UK medicolegal judgements, ophthalmology medicolegal studies and discuss issues that affect clinicians in every day practice taking these into account.

Do you think that what you ‘see’ is a true representation of the visual world? It’s likely that the answer here is 'no' as we already know that we have an ‘invisible’ blind spot in each eye, but how far do you think this misrepresentation can go? This lecture will discuss how reliable the visual system really is, in terms of input and cortical processing, with a particular focus on the difference between 'vision' and 'conscious awareness' of sight. We will also consider the implications of individual differences in visual ability, how other factors can affect perception and discuss some clinically relevant examples, such as Charles-Bonnet Syndrome, blindsight, hemispatial neglect, and synaesthesia.

The session will then explore the potential relevance of intracranial pressure as a risk factor for glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Finally, the emerging topic of glymphatics will be considered, which may be relevant not only to glaucoma but also to other neurodegenerative diseases.
