BCLA multifocals CPD webinar
Samantha Watson
The British Contact Lens Association (BCLA) is urging eyecare professionals to look beyond the traditional stereotypes of ageing and consider how multifocal contact lenses can help presbyopic patients maintain their confidence, independence and active lifestyles.
The message will be at the heart of a new BCLA webinar – ‘Forever young: multifocal contact lenses – because adventures don’t stop at 45’ – taking place from 7pm on Tuesday 8 September.
The sponsor-led webinar, delivered by CooperVision, will be presented by contact lens optician and CooperVision professional affairs consultant, Samantha Watson. It is open to all, and the session is worth one CPD point.
BCLA chief executive, Brad Parkes, said: “This webinar will encourage practitioners to think differently about the conversations they have with presbyopic patients and give them greater confidence in exploring whether multifocal lenses could be right for them.
“Understanding the person behind the prescription is fundamental to delivering truly patient-centred care, and this session will provide valuable insight into both the emotional and practical impact of presbyopia.”
