Activity Outline
It takes considerable skill and resources to differentiate those that require treatment for glaucoma from those who do not, and to avoid over-treating. In this article, Drs Jessica Tang and Katherine Masselos draw on case studies to demonstrate the positive health and economic outcomes that can be achieved when clinics involve credentialed optometrists working with ophthalmologists to provide shared, individualised care for patients at risk of, or living with, glaucoma.
Learning Objectives
- Understand how collaborative care models work
- Be aware of the evidence base for collaborative care of glaucoma patients
