An in-person training programme, founded by consultant ophthalmologist and vitreoretinal surgeon Mr James Neffendorf and founding director of the Complications in Medical Aesthetic Collaborative (CMAC) Gillian Murray, has debuted.
The course reportedly equips clinicians with the skills to assess and identify concerning symptoms of vision loss following dermal filler.
In addition to the teaching, clinicians receive resources, including template wording for filler consent, a hyaluronidase consent form, a step-by-step emergency management protocol, a retrospective documentation template and guidance on developing local referral pathways.
Mr Neffendorf said, “Aesthetic Ocular Safety course equips clinicians with the confidence and assurance that they have done everything possible to secure the best outcome, guided by the expertise of ophthalmologists and senior aestheticians.”
