Abstract
PURPOSE: Qualitative and quantitative analyses of glaucoma patients’ examination efficiency in the conditions of the outpatient link of glaucoma department.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Out-patient and statistical patient cards, annual reports from 2012 till 2019.
RESULTS: 34 677 patients were consulted from 2012 till 2019; a total of 12 267 first time addressing patients comprised 35.4% of the total number of patients. 5 115 people with glaucoma diagnosis (41.7%) were taken under observation for this period.
CONCLUSION. 1. Dispensary supervision of glaucoma patients in the outpatient link of the glaucoma department promotes a delay of glaucoma progression and visual functions stabilization.
2. The continuity between outpatient clinic doctors and the Republican glaucoma department promotes glaucoma detection at the early stages of its development. It gives better chances to the follow-up observation and timely treatment of the patient.
3. Collective cumulative measures for the population enlightenment via mass media promote an increase of glaucoma awareness that in turn stimulates an early admission of patients to specialists.About the Authors
