Dear Colleagues:
Welcome to this special activity on glaucoma patient care. There are two notable disease processes, among many, in which optometrists should hold impeccable competence: These two processes are glaucoma and dry eye disease.
In this activity, we will comprehensively cover all the salient features of glaucoma patient care, including diagnosis, medical therapy and numerous clinical pearls.
We will introduce newly approved glaucoma medications and discuss how they can be integrated into the contemporary care of patients with glaucoma.
As the population ages, the demand for ever-expanding eye care services grows, especially in the care of patients with glaucoma. With these newer ophthalmic medicines, the ability to lower intraocular pressure has never been more advanced.
We hope you find the information shared herein will enable you to provide state-of-the-art glaucoma care in your respective practices.
Sincerely,
Ron Melton, OD, FAAO
