Contact lenses and Presbyopia

Understanding the impact of presbyopia on patients is essential to meeting their visual and lifestyle needs. In this webinar, sponsored by Bausch and Lomb, we explore the psychological impact of the ageing eye on patients and give practitioners an insight into dealing with presbyopic patients.

Our key opinion leader for the session is educator and professional services expert Neil Retallic. He will provide delegates with a better understanding of presbyopia by discussing the effect it has on patients’ lives and the emotions they go through when faced with near vision issues.

In the second half of the webinar Bausch and Lomb provides an update on its Bausch + Lomb ULTRA® ONE DAY portfolio with the presentation of the one day variant of the lens. Bausch + Lomb ULTRA® ONE DAY offers a three zone progressive design featuring B+L’s proprietary moisture and comfort technologies. Kari Anne Jahr, Nordic professional affairs manager and Hajani Santhirasegar, professional affairs associate for the UK and Ireland will explain how these features are achieved and the role they play in meeting the needs of presbyopes. They will also provide a backgrounder on presbyopia and explain the role Ultra can play in meeting wearers’ needs.
