Dr. Bilkhu and Dr. Kar dive into an alternative perspective on myopia that challenges the traditional medical approach. While current treatments often focus on myopia as a problem of it’s own, Dr. Bilkhu shares insights on why myopia may actually be a symptom of a deeper problem: near visual stress. Together, the hosts explore how the behavioral approach suggests that as long as the eyes are under stress, myopia will continue to worsen, regardless of the treatment applied.
Tune in to hear how optometrists can expand their understanding of myopia progression, incorporating behavioral practices to complement their medical treatment plans. This episode invites you to think outside the box and consider the underlying root causes of myopia that general optometry may not fully recognize. A must-listen for anyone ready to rethink their approach to myopia management and provide more holistic care to their patients!
