2022 BCLA Asia In Taipei In Conjunction With Myopia Update Symposium In Taiwan

各位先進與同仁: 近視病已經帶來嚴重的併發症後果,疫情時期學童視力更趨惡化,因此,近視病防治刻不容緩,需要眼科醫師全體關注與參與。台灣近視病新知研討會將由高雄長庚紀念醫院眼科部近視防治中心與英國隱形眼鏡協會(BCLA)於8月13-14日假台北張榮發基金會國際會議中心擴大舉辦,主題為”Myopia Control, Must do it “ !

延續先前MUSIT 的議程安排,今年更特別增加二個重點課程。第一 ,與全球性的國際近視機構International Myopia Institute (IMI)合作分享近視白皮書中的”近視臨床管理方式”並特別邀請四位專家針對目前現有四種近視控制方式做案例討論及現場觀眾投票表達意見,預計有精彩應答。第二,特別與出版Contact Lens and Anterior Eye 期刊(SCI)的英國隱形眼鏡協會(BCLA)合作,針對用隱形眼鏡控制近視做深度討論。

今年不僅有多位國內醫師與專家的參與,邀請的國際近視大師包括休士頓洪立方、德布勒森Noemi Szell、溫州周翔天、上海陳志,香港Pauline Cho、伯明翰James Wolffsohn 、坎培拉Ian Morgan ,舊金山Maria Liu(劉悅),舊金山Meng C Lin (林孟青),雪梨 Padmaja Sankaridurg 等。

因新冠肺炎疫情影響,受邀之國際講師將以視訊形式參加,並提供視訊問答。但因疫情變化與配合防疫政策,若有必要,將改為全視訊會議,最終決定將於會議前用電郵通知所有與會者。

藉由本次研討會與國際學者與與國內學者們,一起對於近視病防治作更進一步的探討,回顧相關近視疾病領域之論文、分享年度新知或研究成果,以期提升近視病防治之共識,並以「提供眼科醫師最新的實證知識,提供患者最好最適切的治療」為使命,誠摯歡迎您報名參加。

Presentation Title
Axial Length in Myopia Management 

Abstract:
In managing myopia, refractive error assessment are commonly used to diagnose and monitor myopia. Recent optical biometers utilizing partial coherence interferometry and swept source techniques allow for rapid and non-invasive measurements of axial length.  Although a refractive error value is still needed to diagnose an eye as being myopic, measurements of axial length allow for more accurate monitoring of myopia progression. This talk will discuss the value of using axial length and axial length/corneal curvature measurements in screening and managing myopia.  Use of axial length and axial length/corneal curvature percentile charts provide a visual method to rapidly determine probability of myopia and monitor those at risk of myopia in specific populations. The talk will also discuss percentile charts and their value in monitoring progression of myopia.
