When you have had a patient present with double vision, have you ever wondered whether you are asking the right questions to work out if this is serious or whether it is a condition you can manage in practice?

Nadeem Ali from the London Squint Clinic is a Consultant Ophthalmologist specialising in adult squint and double vision. He will present a CPD lecture on telling apart double vision that is safe from double vision that needs emergency referral.

This online webinar will help you to confidently assess and manage double vision by identifying causes, distinguishing serious from benign cases, taking detailed histories, performing proper examinations, documenting findings, and using correct referral pathways.

Key points will include testing ductions, recognizing nerve palsies, and managing with prisms when appropriate.

Bring your confidence back in BV with this online zoom session which is FREE!

Open to students and Pre-reg Optoms too!
