Multiple CooperVision Presentations Elevate Ocular Science at Academy 2024

CooperVision has unveiled its broad scientific program for the 2024 American Academy of Optometry annual meeting, helping build clinical knowledge and practice around a range of topics such as myopia management, presbyopia, dry eye, and contact lens handling. The event is expected to draw thousands of eye care professionals (ECPs), researchers, educators, and students to Indianapolis this week.

“As a longstanding partner to the global eye care community, we strongly believe in conducting and sharing research that advances how ECPs work with patients to achieve the best possible outcomes. Our scientists and study collaborators are eager to discuss several of the timeliest topics in optometry, reinforcing CooperVision’s focus on developing innovative products whose clinical advantages are complemented by robust evidence.”

Francis Erard, Vice President of Research & Development, CooperVision

A worldwide leader in myopia management, the company will spotlight multiple works relating to the efficacy of its MiSight® 1 day* contact lens1 and Paragon CRT® 100 orthokeratology contact lenses2, as well as clinical practice patterns.3

Following the debut of its clariti® 1 day multifocal with Binocular Progressive System contact lenses earlier this year, CooperVision adds to the conversation at Academy with two studies that provide ECPs with information on multifocal fit success. A comparison with a differently designed daily disposable multifocal contact lens indicates better overall vision satisfaction with the unique Binocular Progressive System technology4, while another investigation highlights patient acceptance and first fit success when moving from the original clariti® multifocal to the new 3-Add lens.5

Rounding out the scientific program are a presentation from the Centre for Ocular Research & Education (CORE) that explores how symptomatic soft contact lens wearers and non-wearers can be successfully fit with Onefit MED scleral lenses6, and another that examines the impact of lens back vertex power and material on subjective contact lens handling,7 which can be a discontinuation driver among patients, especially neophytes.

Additional information regarding Academy 2024, which runs from November 6-9, is available at https://aaopt.org/meetings/academy-2024-indianapolis/.

* Indications for Use: MiSight® 1 day (omafilcon A) soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses for daily wear are indicated for the correction of myopic ametropia and for slowing the progression of myopia in children with non-diseased eyes, who at the initiation of treatment are 8-12 years of age and have a refraction of -0.75 to -4.00 diopters (spherical equivalent) with ≤ 0.75 diopters of astigmatism. The lens is to be discarded after each removal.
