Provider: Talking Eyes with Lien Trinh
Activity Outline
Optometry Australia members are invited to a practitioner-focused CPD episode of Talking Eyes on Corneal Approaches to Myopia Management, featuring Dr Nina Tahhan Executive Director of the International Myopia Institute (IMI) and a leading clinician-scientist in myopia research.
This episode distils a fast-moving evidence base into clear, usable clinical takeaways. Nina and host Lien Trinh explore the role of soft myopia control lenses and orthokeratology in slowing axial elongation, what clinical trials show, and why efficacy results can’t always be directly compared across studies. You’ll hear practical guidance on choosing between lens modalities, including safety considerations, refractive range limitations for orthokeratology, and the importance of wear time and patient satisfaction in achieving real-world outcomes. Nina also shares information on the next frontier of myopia management, including growing interest in pre-myopia intervention and prevention strategies, and how forthcoming IMI updates will help clinicians stay current.
Learning Objectives
- Understand the evidence for contact lens–based myopia control
- Be able to confidently select appropriate cornea-based myopia management options weighing safety, refractive ranges, visual side effects, lifestyle fits
- Understand practical clinical protocols for assessment and monitory of myopia
