Updated Cochrane network meta analysis on interventions for myopia control in children. Read the full review at: cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10… 40 new studies added. An absolute pleasure working with such a great review team #Cochrane

John G. Lawrenson “Longer term and better quality studies comparing myopia control interventions alone or in combination are needed, with improved methods for monitoring and reporting adverse effects.” Important for policy, important for commissioning, important, mostly, for service users & carers

A new study from Vellore, South India, reports that 14% of adults aged 41–44 already show signs of lens opacities, suggesting early ocular ageing. Risk factors include asthma, high HbA1C, hypertension, and low vitamin D levels. nature.com/articles/s4143… #Ophthalmology #OpenAccess

A UK study found students preferred the flipped classroom model for #ophthalmology teaching—especially for case-based learning using interactive tools. A blend of flipped and traditional methods best addresses students' needs. Eye Open: nature.com/articles/s4444…
