Session Program

In this session we will discuss the evidence for the role of near work in common myopia development, including how near work alters the eye’s biometry and analyse the reasons for the varying opinions on the role of binocular vision and accommodation errors in myopia. We will also explore what near work advice should be provided.

Learning Objectives:
On completion of this CPD activity, participants should be able to:
  • Explain the role of near work in myopia.
  • Understand how the biometry changes during near work.
  • Understand the varying opinions on binocular vision and accommodation errors in myopia.
