09.01.2022 Let us introduce our second speaker for the OSO Halloween Webinar - on 31st October 2020 - Dr Pauline Kang will be speaking on customising myopia control to choose the right treatment for your patient. To register your interest to attend, please email your name to [email protected] ... Pauline is a Lecturer at the School of Optometry and Vision Science, UNSW. Her research focuses on optical strategies of myopia control. In particular, she has been exploring optical changes induced by various types of contact lenses to better understand how different contact lenses induce myopia control effects. Pauline's research has extended to explore changes in visual function, binocularity and accommodation with contact lenses used for myopia control with the aim of improving efficacy of current myopia control devices. Pauline coordinates the Myopia Clinic at the UNSW Optometry Clinic, to not only provide a clinic dedicated to myopia management, but to teach undergraduate Optometry and Vision Science students current evidence-based management of progressive myopia.
09.01.2022 The Orthokeratology Society of Oceania is pleased to announce our upcoming Halloween-themed webinar, on 31st October 2020, 5pm AEDT. We have lined up three brilliant speakers for the evening: Associate Professor Stephen Vincent of QUT, Dr Pauline Kang of UNSW and Dr Kathleen Watt of UNSW. Steve will discuss the emerging evidence of the importance of higher order aberrations for myopia control, and ask whether aberrations may play a greater role than peripheral myopic def...ocus. Kath will be discussing the latest research on the safety of orthokeratology and how safe is OK as a method for myopia control. Pauline will be speaking on customising myopia control, and guiding us to consider which method is best for which patient. Come join us for this night where these big questions will be answered. And the attendee with the best Halloween costume will be rewarded! To register please contact Philip Cheng at [email protected] Cost: FREE for OSO members $30 for non-members
