Study Looks at Method for Improving Utilization of Low Vision Services

Due to a lack of awareness by the general public, fewer than 10% of people in need of low vision rehabilitation care utilize the service. Findings of a study led by Judith Goldstein, O.D. suggest that implementing a clinical decision support system (CDSS) in eye care coupled with onsite service provision may improve utilization of low vision care. The findings were published in JAMA Network.
