Adult Myopia Progression

4 years 11 months ago - 4 years 11 months ago #142 by Andrew D Price
If this unscientific survery is anywhere near the reality, given that the normal recall period for adults is 2 years, that means mearly 4 out 10 myopes will find their prescription changing by a whole dioptre each time they have an eye exam, equivalant to going from 'normal' vision measured at 6/6 to 6/12 or a little worse, at this level most drivers would fail the 'number plate test' and be liable to have their licence instantly revoked on the spot! 

Is there anything, we as ECPs, can do?
