Patient Acceptance and Attitude Toward an Alternative Method of Subconjunctival Injection for the Medical Treatment of Glaucoma

Abstract

Our study found that 74% of glaucoma patients were willing to accept an alternative form of glaucoma treatment through 3-monthly subconjunctival injections. A large proportion of patients who were admitted to nonadherence to topical medication were willing to consider this alternative method of medication. Our findings are helpful when developing patient-acceptable drug-delivery regimes, which may alleviate the need for daily medication.
