Eye Patient Adherence and Compliance Study

Eye Patient Adherence and Compliance Study-Intervention Program (EYE-PACIP): Improving Glaucoma Adherence and Compliance in High-risk Patients With a Multi-interventional Program

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study looks at ways to help people with glaucoma take their eye drops regularly and attend their clinic appointments. Each participant will be asked about the main challenges they face, such as forgetfulness, difficulty using drops, lack of transportation, or limited understanding of their condition. Based on their biggest challenge, participants will receive one type of support that is already part of usual care, such as education, reminders, help with applying drops, or assistance getting to appointments. The investigators will follow participants over time to see if this support improves how well they follow their treatment and their quality of life.
