format work?

The Myopia Podcast operates on a biweekly release schedule, with new episodes launched approximately every 2 weeks. Our episodes are intentionally designed to be concise, typically ranging between 20–30 minutes. We believe in delivering content in easily digestible, bite-sized doses.

Our podcast is not only an informational resource but also a tool to break down barriers for those looking to start their journey in myopia management.

What was the inspiration behind launching the podcast and the motivation to focus on myopia-related topics?

As a myopia management provider, my passion lies in staying at the forefront of advancements in the field. I love engaging with researchers to uncover the latest findings and discovering how these insights can enhance the quality of care in my practice. In conversations with fellow doctors, I often delve into their treatment approaches and implementation strategies, aiming to “hack” into the core of their success.

Beyond clinical discussions, I find immense value in exploring the industry and understanding the products and services shaping our field. This insight allows me to tailor my treatments more effectively for my patients. Given the wealth of insightful conversations I was already having, it dawned on me that recording and sharing these discussions through a podcast could offer a valuable resource for others. 

The Myopia Podcast was born out of a desire to make these enriching conversations accessible, enabling fellow practitioners to leverage the collective wisdom of our dynamic field.

get released?
