Abstract

In August 2023, BJO and the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center co-hosted a round table discussion on Best Practices in Myopia Control. This gathering provided a platform for the exchange of insights and discussion of evidence-based strategies to respond to the rapid increase in myopia prevalence. Participants from China, Hong Kong, the UK and Australia met in Guangzhou, China, to discuss the global status and challenges associated with myopia control (see the ‘Acknowledgements’ section for the list of panel members). The event included panel discussions on (1) prevention and public education for myopia control and (2) individualised myopia control. This report summarises the topics in myopia prevention and control discussed.
