Talk Description

Rodenstock this April delivered a new myopia control lens. With a horizontal increase in refractive power on both sides of an optical centre for central imaging, the lens is intended to ensure the appropriate corrective effect and, at the same time, create an image in front of the retina via the peripheral increase in refractive power in the lens. This presentation will outline the research that influenced this design and a study reflecting the efficacy of this type of design. There will also be a description of the research supporting the software platform that has been introduced with a myopia management program.

Learning Objectives:
  • To understand how the relative peripheral spherical equivalent refraction nasally and temporally may impact upon the development of myopia.
  • To understand how anatomical asymmetry in the retina in the nasal and temporal regions in terms of cone and ganglion cell density may impact upon the development of myopia.
