Children are becoming nearsighted at increasingly younger ages. Spending too little time outside and too much time inside, usually staring at a screen, plays a big part in myopia development in children.
What are you doing in your practice to help manage myopia?
If you are starting or have an established practice, you can always learn something from others, from the newest tools available to proven practices that work.
Join us on Thursday, November 7, live via Zoom, as our speaker, Dr. Troy Ogden, breaks down the simple steps to simplify myopia management for you and your practice.
