Want to delve deeper into refractive defect correction options? This postgraduate certificate is what you need! Learn all about the optical and medical-surgical treatment of myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia"

Refractive errors, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness and astigmatism, are very common vision problems that affect millions of people worldwide. Fortunately, there are different therapeutic options that can help correct these defects and improve people's visual quality. Therefore, it is essential for eye care professionals to have a solid background in this subject and to be up to date on the therapeutic options available.

This is why a postgraduate certificate on Therapeutic Options in Refractive Defects is necessary. This is awarded by TECH and will allow students to acquire the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to understand the different aspects of the optics of the human eye, the exploration of refractive defects and the therapeutic options available.

During the program, fundamental aspects of geometric optics, diagnostic measures and the different therapeutic options to correct myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia will be discussed. In addition, the impact of the tear, ocular surface, vitreous and retina on the visual quality of patients will be addressed.

The methodology of the 100% online postgraduate certificate will consist of a combination of theoretical and practical classes, in which specialized tools and equipment for the diagnosis and treatment of refractive defects will be used and explained. Students will also have the opportunity to carry out supervised internships and case studies to strengthen their knowledge and skills. The main objective of the degree is for students to acquire comprehensive training in Therapeutic Options in Refractive Defects in order to provide quality care to their patients in the future.
