International Myopia Institute Launches Myopia Control Attitudes and Practice Survey

The World Council of Optometry (WCO) is collaborating with the International Myopia Institute (IMI) to promote the IMI “Myopia Control Attitudes and Practice” survey

The survey takes only five minutes to complete but can provide a wealth of information to combat the global myopia epidemic. 

WCO President Peter Hendicott, MAppSc, PhD said, “We encourage eye care professionals worldwide to take this survey whether or not they employ myopia management in their practices. The World Council of Optometry fully supports our colleagues at the International Myopia Institute in gathering this critical information to learn more about what is happening in practices around the world and how we can get ahead of the myopia epidemic.” 

The survey closes in October, with a report on results expected in early 2023.  Take the survey now and share the link with your global colleagues.
