This cooperative agreement offers funding to improve glaucoma screening, referral, and treatment. This grant is specifically for addressing the greatest disparities in access to glaucoma care among high-risk populations. These include Hispanics, blacks, Asians, individuals aged 60 and older, those with a family history of glaucoma, and people with diabetes. The core purpose is to implement community-based outreach programs that enhance access to care for these vulnerable groups, ensuring timely diagnosis and effective management of glaucoma, thereby reducing vision impairment and improving eye health outcomes for those most affected by barriers to care.
