A survey of prescribing philosophy in childhood hyperopia among optometrists in Ghana
The spectacle prescribing philosophies in childhood hyperopia amongst optometrists in Ghana largely follow existing clinical guidelines, although, in some instances, there were mismatches between the existing guidelines and their preferred pattern. Regular continuing professional development, which highlights emerging evidence on prescribing in childhood hyperopia, would be desirable.
