Description
Background: This research survey is designed to investigate the number and the demographics of pediatric optometrists as well as the wide range of optometric services provided for pediatric patients throughout the state of Michigan by these optometrists. This study is focused on the training in pediatrics these optometrists have had and should have and the optometric associations to which they belong. Also, the survey is designed to provide insight into the marketing and success of lnfantSEE assessments and the optometric services for pediatric patients across the state of Michigan. Methods: Electronic surveys were sent out to the 935 licensed optometrists who are members of Michigan Optometric Association. Results: A 6.7% return rate of the surveys was
achieved, which helped accumulate and organize raw data into a resource to further explore the state of pediatric optometry in Michigan. Analysis: There is a great deal currently being accomplished in the area of pediatric optometry across the state of Michigan, but there is room for improvement. Discussion: Comprehensive eye care is critical for the pediatric population. Michigan ptometrists continue to strive for excellence helping with early detection of ocular difficulties before adulthood. |
