Postgraduate Certificate in Pediatric Optometry

The treatment of visual disturbances in children requires a series of solid theoretical and practical knowledge regarding the functioning of the optical system during this stage and the most effective techniques for the detection of such imperfections. For this reason, at TECH Global University we have created this Postgraduate Certificate in Pediatric Optometry, whose curriculum covers the principles of aberrometry, the metrics for measuring visual quality and the classification of clinically significant aberrations, with special emphasis on external and internal ocular aberrations. Subsequently, everything related to aberrometric changes induced on the cornea and those induced by crystalline lens surgery and intraocular lens implantation is covered. This syllabus will allow students to acquire the necessary skills to evaluate, diagnose and perform interventions according to the age of the patient and the respective evolutionary stage of their visual status. At a more advanced stage and based on the data collected during their consultations, they will also be able to plan specific comprehensive prevention strategies. Thanks to this, at the end of the program, our students will perform outstandingly in the exercise of their work, responding adequately to the requirements of their patients.

Postgraduate studies in Optometry

Studying this Postgraduate Certificate in Optometry is an opportunity to be completely introduced in the daily practice of this specialty, since it offers the indispensable tools for the approach of refractive and accommodative defects. Throughout this academic course, professionals will master from the preparation of reports for pre-diagnosis (medical records, referral reports, interprofessional communication) to the establishment of parameters for the consolidation of optometric goals of the population. This acquired knowledge will enable them to assess the ocular structure of infants, taking into account the impact of the neurophysiological basis of vision on the different visual skills. Likewise, the graduate of the Postgraduate Certificate in Pediatric Optometry will be qualified to perform anomaly evaluation procedures (based on the metrics of Zernike coefficient, Strehl ratio, CSF, MTF and RMS) and to prescribe orthokeratology interventions, centered or decentered treatments, laser ablations and surgeries.
