Brief description The provision of eyecare in Australia has significantly changed over the past decade. Major challenges have been created because of our ageing population with chronic ocular diseases (eg, glaucoma), expanded scope of practice including co-management options for glaucoma and dramatic expansion of technology associated with glaucoma diagnosis. Major questions have therefore arisen in relation to policy issues, service delivery and how research results are integrated with the overall aim being for the early diagnosis of glaucoma.
