Description:
This workshop focuses on orthokeratology treatment and how it fits into practice today.  Practitioners will understand its application for myopia control in children as well as its use in adult population.  The various pre-fit procedures and analysis will be discussed along with the initial lens determination and evaluation.  Then heavy emphasis will be placed on the post wear analysis which includes the slit lamp exam, acuity and corneal topography response.  The follow-up, ongoing care and problem solving will also be reviewed.  Attendees will also have the opportunity in the course to evaluate cases both pre-fit and post wear.
