Hoya CPD webinar event Wednesday 18th June 2025 7.30pm

10 June 2025

Dear Colleagues,

Sofia Fazal Professional Service Manager for Hoya UK would like to invite you to their next CPD webinar event:

Wednesday 18th June 2025, 7.30pm

Prof David Elliott presents:

“Non-tols”, Rechecks and Remakes: Why they occur and how to avoid them – C-112437

1 Interactive CPD Point

Description:
This lecture summarises the extent of non-tolerances or “non-tols” (also called rechecks; patients who return to an optical practice because they are dissatisfied with their new spectacles) and their causes. Many non-tols lead to the need to remake the spectacles at no cost to the patient. Evidence will be presented that supports the prescribing of a refractive correction that differs from the subjection refraction result to reduce non-tols. This correction is typically modified based on the difference between the habitual or presenting spectacle correction and the subjective refraction. This evidence includes a review of the validity and variability of subjective refraction, the degree of tolerance to small changes from the subjective refraction and causes of spectacle adaptation difficulties in the elderly. A series of recheck cases from a recent study will be used to demonstrate the problems and illustrate the usefulness of recommended prescribing guidelines.

Competencies:
