Addressing myopia: best practices and minimum standards in clinical practice
This document is an updated version of the original position paper that was published in 2021. It provides evidence‑informed best‑practice recommendations and minimum standards for myopia prevention, detection and control, intended for clinicians, programme managers and policymakers.
By outlining principles, interventions, monitoring strategies and human resource considerations, the document seeks to promote consistent, high-quality myopia management, improve visual outcomes, and reduce the long-term risk of myopia-related complications. This document can also be read in conjunction with the IAPB Policy Brief: Early Intervention in Paediatric Myopia (2026)
