Myopia management resource launches

The World Council of Optometry (WCO) and CooperVision have jointly developed an online resource that contains information for practitioners on more effectively managing myopia.

Paul Folkesson, WCO president, said: ‘This online resource provides eye care practitioners from anywhere in the world access to the information they need to implement a standard of care to treat or manage a patient’s myopia progression.’

The guide has been organised around what the WCO called ‘three main pillars of evidence-based standard of care.’ These included mitigation, measurement and management and each pillar provides distilled papers and studies for practitioners.
