This session is delivered in partnership with CooperVision.

In this highly interactive session, Richard Edwards will use an Optical Consumer Complaints Service (OCCS)-style format to share both hypothetical and anecdotally emerging scenarios in myopia management.

This will enable eye care practitioners to discuss insights and best practice in the way they manage their conversations so critical to the success of myopia management interventions.
