OVC 2024: Reasons to be cheerful? The myopia epidemic, myopia management and MiSight 1 day (Recorded Webcast - Sponsored)


Activity Outline

The MiSight 1 day contact lens has become one of the most widely used treatments for slowing the progression of myopia in children. With the original study cohort of 8 to 12-year-olds having reached young adulthood, further insights are available to assist optometrists in their long-term management of such patients. And, looking more broadly, is myopia management reaching all those children across Australia and New Zealand who need it?

Learning Objectives

  • Understand key findings from the MiSight 1 day study with respect to myopia progression, vision and ocular health
