Working together in eye care
• Shift in the balance of care - “the right patient needs to go the right place”
• Improve Optometric referral quality• Maximise optometry skills and resources
with community services • Reduce unnecessary GP referrals through
electronic triage and referral feedback.

Liberating the NHS: Eye careNick Bosanquet
The way forward• A defined and purposeful partnership
between community based optometry/ophthalmic services and hospital based ophthalmology services.
1. Shift in the balance of care - “the right patient needs to go the right place”

2. Improve Optometric referral qualityProblem
• Current GOS 18– Legibility problems– Problems with patient ending up in wrong
clinic or just general clinic.– Passing on additional information for the
benefit of the Consultant• Snail Mail • Feedback mechanism
![Page 7: Primary Care Ophthalmology confrence 2103](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062313/557ab457d8b42a74488b50bc/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2. Improve Optometric referral qualityPlan
• Electronic redesigned GOS 18 (PDF)– Legibility problems – Problems with patient ending up in wrong clinic or just
general clinic.– Passing on additional information for the benefit of the
Consultant
• NHS net– Passing on additional information for the benefit of the
Consultant– Snail mail– Feedback mechanism

2. Improve Optometric referral qualityBarriers
• Electronic redesigned GOS 18– Lack of access to computer – PMS interference– Technical ability– Apathy
• NHS net– All of the above but to the power of 20– HES .net addresses– GP willingness to receive email referrals
![Page 9: Primary Care Ophthalmology confrence 2103](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062313/557ab457d8b42a74488b50bc/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2. Improve Optometric referral qualityImplementation
• Electronic GOS has been circulated • Paper form of redesigned GOS18. • Training Videos produced.
• NHS net as of October 2013……….

Community Services• Glaucoma (30%)
– Repeat IOP and fields– Glaucoma referral refinement– OHT monitoring– Stable Glaucoma monitoring
• Cataract (20%)– Pre-Op refinement– Post Op
• Learning Disabilities• Low Vision• Children's Vision Post Screening• PEARS/Minor Eye conditions/Other Community based
referral pathways (30%)• Ophthalmology Referral Triage (Catchall 100%)

LOCSU – Referral Refinement
• Level 1a Goldmann Applanation Tonometry
– If IOP >21 mmHg at GOS or private sight test, Optometrist carries out Goldmann applanation tonometry and repeats on a separate occasion if necessary
• Level 1b Visual Field Refinement
– If suspicious visual field at GOS or private sight test, optometrist carries out repeat measurement on a separate occasion
• Level 2 OHT Monitoring
– Patients who are diagnosed by secondary care (or specialist practitioner) as having OHT which does not require treatment will be referred for monitoring in the community at intervals specified by NICE
