In
our next conference highlight, we feature a presentation by Stephanie
Campbell MCOptom, Optometrist and PhD student at Cardiff University.
In her presentation “Little eyes, big vision problems. Let's talk contact lenses”, Stephanie will look at how contact lenses have the the potential to positively change the life of a child.
When to prescribed contact lenses in children is often a hotly
debated topic. In her lecture, Stephanie will explore the risks
associated with their use in children and how they can be managed along
the way. She will emphasise the importance of building trust with your
younger patients and how communication is key.
The College of Optometrists and the BCLA have teamed up to offer
dedicated contact lens sessions offering contact lens CET points at
Optometry Tomorrow 2016 (13-14 March 2016, Birmingham Hilton Metropole).
