Myopia Profile announced the return of Myopia Action Month this September. Specifically, the global program provides eyecare professionals (ECPs) with free resources, clinical tools, and evidence-based education that is designed to help practitioners advance myopia management in their practices, according to a press release.

Feedback from ECPs worldwide guides Myopia Action Month’s third year, says Dr. Kate Gifford, cofounder and director of Myopia Profile, in a press release. She adds, “This year, we’ve developed targeted, actionable content that addresses the most common themes we heard, helping [ECPs] elevate their myopia management practices.”

Throughout September, ECPs will have access to these multiple programs and resources:

• Myopia Quick Takes – More than a dozen short clinical snapshots that cover essentials from testing to treatments are shared across Myopia Profile’s social media platforms.

• Clinical Clarity Series – Weekly 10-minute lectures that address practical topics, such as initiating myopia management, screen time considerations, optical treatment options, and atropine use.

• Practice Essentials – A collection of resources from Myopia Profile and industry partners to support the development of sustainable management programs.

• Social Media Toolkit – A downloadable resource that is designed to help practitioners demonstrate their expertise and commitment to myopia management within their practices and local communities.

Myopia Action Month supports the World Council of Optometry’s advocacy for myopia patient care and is backed by sponsors including CooperVision, EssilorLuxottica, HOYA, Johnson & Johnson Vision, Menicon, OCULUS, Ocumetra, Alcon, Eyerising International, SEED, Topcon Healthcare Europe, and SightGlass Vision, Inc.
