How reliable are predictors of myopia progression?
Myopia progression graphs, tools and apps are an excellent visual display. But how reliable are these calculators for your patient?

Why Each Dioptre Matters
We all know that high myopia is associated with higher incidences of retinal detachment, glaucoma and myopic maculopathy1. Instigating early, evidence based myopia control in rapidly progressing myopes gives the best outcomes both pathophysiologically and refractively. However when faced with a low, slower progressing myope, or a patient whom has already progressed is there any point in persisting with myopia control?
