Therapeutics Refresher Day 2026

Therapeutics Refresher Day brings together leading clinicians to deliver evidence-based updates on contemporary ocular therapeutics and clinical decision‑making. The program opens with Dr Doreen Ho’s deep dive into anterior uveitis, guiding attendees through differential diagnosis of red‑eye presentations before moving into practical, case‑based management discussions covering both local and systemic treatment pathways.

Daniel Chew follows with an exploration of pre‑myopia, outlining how to identify children at risk of progression and when to initiate intervention. His session includes interactive clinical scenarios designed to strengthen confidence in early‑stage myopia management.

Sue Kweon will then examine the topical and systemic medications that influence ocular health, highlighting key drug‑induced side effects, mechanisms of systemic absorption, and strategies for screening and risk reduction. Her presentation equips clinicians to anticipate complications and collaborate effectively across care teams to optimise ocular prescribing.

Glaucoma specialist Dr Paul Sia provides an evidence‑informed overview of modern surgical options, from laser procedures and cataract‑related interventions to MIGS and MIBS techniques, supported by real‑world postoperative cases.

The day concludes with Dr Heathcote Wright’s analysis of primary angle closure disease, integrating findings from the EAGLE, ANA‑LIS and ZAP studies to clarify indications for laser peripheral iridotomy, lens extraction and the evolving role of MIGS in PAC and PACG management.
