| diabetic eye exam cost: Digital Teleretinal Screening Kanagasingam Yogesan, Leonard Goldschmidt, Jorge Cuadros, 2012-03-28 Digital retinal imaging performed by primary care providers and nurses, followed by remote image interpretation (teleretinal imaging), is rapidly acquiring a crucial role in many parts of the world as it permits the detection of major diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma, in patients who would otherwise be beyond the reach of a trained ophthalmologist. In this book, experts from around the world describe how digital teleretinal screening can be set up and optimally utilized. Technical issues are discussed, and the appropriate use of screening for different diseases and in different age groups is explained.

The result is a comprehensive source of high-quality information for clinicians and other health professionals who are involved in eye care delivery, so that they can assess how teleretinal screening might be applied to their working practice. |

| diabetic eye exam cost: Eye Health: Challenges and Solutions Kai Cao, Mayinuer Yusufu, Jie Hao, 2024-09-30 Eye health is an important part of public health. It is estimated that more than 40 million people are blind and more than 550 million people suffer from mild to severe visual impairment by 2020. In addition, at least one billion people worldwide suffer from visual impairment, most of which could have been prevented. The majority of people with vision impairment and blindness are over the age of 50 years; however, vision loss can affect people of all ages. The World Health Organization reports that the top causes of blindness and vision loss include cataract, uncorrected ametropia, glaucoma, age-related macular disease, diabetes retinopathy, etc. As people's lifestyles change, the disease spectrum is evolving across the globe, and responses and strategies need to change in time. Efforts to reduce the prevalence, incidence, progression of eye diseases could have a profound impact on public health. The aim of the current Research Topic is to focus on recent and novel research trends in ocular diseases (glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, myopia, etc) and visual impairment, especially preventive strategies to avoid younger age of ocular diseases onset and vision loss. Additionally, new studies are important to identify strategies that would help better screen ocular diseases or prevent vision loss. We aim for a state-of-the-art collection of articles that will provide professionals and managers with knowledge of the risk factors, prediction, screening, management, and prevention of ocular diseases, as well as the risk factors, prediction, management, and prevention of vision loss. |

| diabetic eye exam cost: Drug Delivery for the Retina and Posterior Segment Disease Jayvadan K. Patel, Vijaykumar Sutariya, Jagat Rakesh Kanwar, Yashwant V. Pathak, 2018-10-08 This book addresses the issues relating to a wide variety of ocular diseases from which millions of people suffer. Long-term challenges include visual impairment and ocular blindness. Certain ocular diseases are quite rare, whereas others, such as cataracts, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and glaucoma, are very common, especially in the aging population. A rapid expansion of new technologies in ocular drug delivery and new drug candidates, including biologics, to treat these challenging diseases in the retina and posterior segments of the eye have recently emerged. These approaches are necessary because the eye has many unique barriers to drug delivery. Thus, this timely reference Drug Delivery for the Retina and Posterior Segment Disease compiles and analyzes recent advances in the research and development of drug delivery systems for retina and posterior segment diseases of the eye, with an emphasis on the use of implantable devices, iontophoresis as well as micro- and nanoparticles. |

| diabetic eye exam cost: Bending the Cost Curve in Health Care Gregory P. Marchildon, Livio Di Matteo, 2015-01-01 Through Canadian and international perspectives, Bending the Cost Curve in Health Care explores the management of growing health costs in an extraordinarily complex arena. The book moves beyond previous debates, agreeing that while efficiencies and better value for money may yet be found, more fundamental reforms to the management and delivery of health services are essential prerequisites to bending the cost curve in the long run. While there is considerable controversy over direction and details of change, there also remains the challenge of getting agreement on the values or principles that would guide the reshaping of the policies, the structures, and the regulatory environment of health care in Canada. Leading experts from around the world representing a range of disciplines and professional backgrounds come together to organize and define the problems faced by policy-makers. Case studies from the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, the Nordic countries, and industrialized Asian countries such as Taiwan offer useful reform experiences for provincial governments in Canada. Finally, common Canadian cost factors, such as pharmaceuticals and technology, and paying the health workforce, are explored. This book is the first volume in The Johnson-Shoyama Series on Public Policy, published by the University of Toronto Press in association with the Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy, an interdisciplinary centre for research, teaching, and executive training with campuses at the Universities of Regina and Saskatchewan. |

For most people, eyesight is part of everyday communication, social activities, educational and professional pursuits, the care of others, and the maintenance of personal health, independence, and mobility. Functioning eyes and vision system can reduce an adult's risk of chronic health conditions, death, falls and injuries, social isolation, depression, and other psychological problems. In children, properly maintained eye and vision health contributes to a child's social development, academic achievement, and better health across the lifespan. The public generally recognizes its reliance on sight and fears its loss, but emphasis on eye and vision health, in general, has not been integrated into daily life to the same extent as other health promotion activities, such as teeth brushing; hand washing; physical and mental exercise; and various injury prevention behaviors. A larger population health approach is needed to engage a wide range of stakeholders in coordinated efforts that can sustain the scope of behavior change. The shaping of socioeconomic environments can eventually lead to new social norms that promote eye and vision health. Making Eye Health a Population Health Imperative: Vision for Tomorrow proposes a new population-centered framework to guide action and coordination among various, and sometimes competing, stakeholders in pursuit of improved eye and vision health and health equity in the United States. Building on the momentum of previous public health efforts, this report also introduces a model for action that highlights different levels of prevention activities across a range of stakeholders and provides specific examples of how population health strategies can be translated into cohesive areas for action at federal, state, and local levels. |
