Introduction
Myopia is on the rise globally, particularly among children and adolescents, making its management a growing priority for eye care practitioners. While conventional methods for myopia control, such as spectacle lenses, contact lenses, and pharmacological interventions, remain effective, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing how myopia progression is understood, monitored, and managed.
This webinar will explore how AI-driven tools analyze genetic predispositions, lifestyle factors, and progression rates to create personalized myopia control plans. Participants will gain insights into cutting-edge predictive technologies, practical AI tools for clinical implementation, and the future role of AI in delivering proactive, tailored care for myopic patients.
Objectives
To introduce the role of AI in analyzing genetic and lifestyle data to predict myopia progression.
To demonstrate how AI tools can personalize myopia control strategies for individual patients.
To explore the use of predictive technologies and algorithms for monitoring and forecasting myopia progression rates.
To discuss emerging future technologies in AI and their potential impact on managing myopia globally.
