💬 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙙𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠?
In Dr. D’s conversation with Jagrut Lallu, Jagrut discusses a question many of us have debated: Should we be saying “myopia control” or “myopia management”?

Dr. Lallu’s take: it may depend on the family you’re speaking with. The terminology that resonates best can change based on their experience, understanding, and perspective.
