Myopia Management as an Art

Emilie Seitz, OD

Show Description +

In this month’s episode of Medical Millennial, Emilie Seitz, OD is joined by Inna Lazar, OD, owner of Greenwich Eye Care in Old Greenwich, Connecticut, for a conversation on myopia management. Dr. Lazar explains that because myopia progresses more quickly in younger children, beginning management early, even at the first visit, rather than waiting to see significant progression, leads to better visual outcomes. She also talks about how she personalizes treatment to her patients’ needs and lifestyles, how she educates parents, what equipment is necessary, new technology she plans to implement, and more.
