In clinical studies, myopia progression was slowed down by 60% on average in children who wore MIYOSMART spectacle lenses, and 1 in 5 children had no myopia progression at all within 2 years of wear. Children who wore MIYOSMART spectacle lenses for 6 years experienced a lasting myopia control effect, compared to those who wore them for a shorter amount of time, showing that there is a benefit of wearing the spectacle lenses long-term. 📱 081-366-9957 (WhatsApp) 📞 011-476-3202 📧 cresta@thevisioncompany.co.za #Visionoptometrists #visionoptoms #myopiamanagement #slowdownmyopia #myopia #actnowseetomorrow

DAV supports H.R. 6373/S. 4009, the Veterans Spinal Trauma Access to New Devices (STAND) Act. This legislation seeks to enhance health care for veterans with spinal cord injuries by mandating that VA offer them annual yearly preventative health evaluations for the purpose of improving consideration of and accessibility to assistive technologies that could help maximize their independence and mobility when medically appropriate. Please contact your representatives and urge them to co-sponsor and support H.R. 6373/S. 4009 today: http://dav.la/3tn. New assistive technologies like the exoskeleton are now available to certain SCI veterans. This wearable assistive technology device can empower certain individuals with spinal cord injury to stand, walk, turn, and navigate stairs, which can enhance their health, socialization, independence, and participation in community activities. We ask that all DAV members and supporters contact your representatives and urge them to co-sponsor and H.R. 6373/S. 4009, the STAND Act.

Insight into the mask project: At MRIBH, my group sessions are solely focused on the mask project. Patients complete their individual masks over the course of a three session series. Session one begins with a group discussion of what they think of when they hear “mask” and many ways it resonates with the military and first responder culture. I share an article on this project by National Geographic, from 2015, featuring NICoE’s masks. Then, patients have a chance to reflect and brainstorm what their own mask is. Session two is spent workshopping the masks and then, session three is spent processing them. As each mask gets passed around, I ask very specific questions before they reveal the meaning of their masks to their peers. Themes often include pre-post injury, pre-post service, internal experience vs external presentation, or anything else they feel pertains to the mask they wear. They can work on the inside and outside of the mask, create multiple, create an environment for it, deconstruct it- the possibilities are endless. This project can be the most vulnerable and I appreciate and am inspired every time a patient is willing to take it on! I have done this project with the SUDs population, as well, so this project is applicable in many other ways!

At a CooperVision satellite meeting event, the spotlight was on MiSight® 1 Day—the first FDA-approved soft contact lens clinically proven to slow myopia progression in children aged 8-12. Join us as we bring you exclusive insights from global myopia experts on the company’s special session at the symposium: “CooperVision Satellite Meeting for Myopia Management Training and Education”. In this session, Dr. Maria Liu shared the efficacy of MiSight 1 Day in managing pediatric myopia, backed by real-world results and the advanced technology powering its myopia control design.

A Legacy of Firsts Since its founding in 1891, Philips has been a technological leader in many markets, and it is no different with AEDs. Philips entered the AED market in 2000 with the acquisition of Agilent Technologies, a spinoff from Hewlett-Packard. Today, Philips holds over 85% of all technical innovations in the AED market. A great example is the technology to deliver a shock to children. When Philips was the first to introduce this technology to the market, it made it freely available to all AED manufacturers. Other innovations include: - 1st biphasic AED (all AEDs are now based on this technology) - Quick Shock technology (Philips is still the fastest AED in the world) - The first AED for lay users and home use (still the only “Over-The-Counter” Approved and easiest to use AED in the world) #Pulse4all #Innovation #Technology #Philips #AED #Healthcare #EmergencyResponse #LifeSavingTech #QuickShock #MedicalDevices #HeartHealth #ChildSafety #CPR #Defibrillator #BiphasicTechnology #MedicalInnovation #TechForGood
