11 Optometrists will understand the signs, symptoms, differential diagnosis, prognosis, referral, and consequences of refusal to be referred, for basal cell carcinoma (rodent ulcer), squamous cell carcinoma and other skin cancers Dispensing Opticians will understand the signs, symptoms, differential diagnosis, prognosis, referral, and consequences of refusal to be referred, for basal cell carcinoma (rodent ulcer), squamous cell carcinoma and other skin cancers Dispensing Opticians will understand the demanding requirements of dispensing with a congenital Aphakic patient from baby to older child. this will cover lens choice and availability, back vertex distance and its relationship with effective power and annular scotoma and how close fitting is essential despite increasing the effective power and thickness and weight of the lenses. Dispensing opticians will consider the methods used to refract babies and children, why it is not always possible for hospital colleagues to provide a vertex distance, and what is in the best interests of the child. BVD and effective power will also be considered. Once in a lifetime, or once in a week? Peter Black Dispensing Workshop 15:00 C CET points Optometrists will understand the demanding requirements of dispensing a congenital Aphakic patient from baby to older child. this will cover lens choice and availability, back vertex distance and its relationship with effective power and annular scotoma and how close fitting is essential despite increasing the effective power and thickness and weight of the lenses. They will also consider the different requirements and challenges associated with extremely high myopia. Dispensing Opticians will understand how to handle a Px with a painful red eye or other potentially sight threatening condition, how to assess signs and symptoms, prognosis if untreated, route of referral including the ABDO Form v GOS 18. They will also understand what tests they are permitted to do in the context of the legal position of a DO doing for example NCT, Fields, Fundus, VAs etc and will concentrate on tonometry results as a prelude to further action. Dispensing opticians will understand the consequences of extreme refractive error and the likelihood that in itself it can be a cause of low vision in otherwise healthy eyes - spectacle magnification in minus lenses, and annular scotoma in positive prescriptions can both impact so severely that the patient can be deemed to have low vision for reasons of reduced visual acuity or field of view Across all of the scenarios dispensing opticians will consider how to deal with difficult communication problems such as patients who don't want to be referred, parents who are devastated by their children's eye health problems, and the age old issue of the best lenses costing the most money.
