Time spent on eye disease screening, optical care, and care navigation within a federally qualified health center
The Michigan Screening and Intervention for Glaucoma and Eye Health through Telemedicine (MI-SIGHT) program offers a novel approach to eye care by providing free eye disease screenings, optical services, and care navigation at a federally qualified health center to improve vision outcomes and eye health in underserved communities. This time study provides workforce estimates to guide the scaling of similar comprehensive eye care programs in low-resource settings.
