Activity Outline
Atropine is increasingly being used for myopia management, however uncertainty remains over dosage, side effects, and whether or not it should be combined with refractive interventions.
In this free webinar – The efficacy of atropine in the management of myopia – hosted by mivision, ophthalmologists Dr Loren Rose and Dr Shanel Sharma, and clinical researcher Associate Professor Pauline Kang will present on personalisation of treatment, key considerations for discontinuing atropine, and how eye care practitioners can maximise treatment benefit while managing glare, photophobia and near blur. The event will be moderated by experienced optometrist and optometric educator, Andrew Kotsos.
