Providing Financial Incentives to Improve Adherence to Referral Eye Care Visits
Using Telemedicine to Prevent Blindness in an At-risk Rural Alabama Population
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Aug 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Glaucoma is a blinding eye disease increasingly common in older adults, particularly in African Americans, and often diagnosed late in the disease course. It is essential to develop novel health care models, utilizing telemedicine, to improve the ability to detect glaucoma at an earlier stage, and to provide a platform to manage this disease in community-based clinics so that further vision loss is prevented. Our goal is to improve the quality and accessibility of glaucoma detection and management among a vulnerable and at-risk segment of our population.
