Vision Impairment and Eye Health
in Primary Healthcare
ECHO-Chicago provides training via Zoom to build capacity at the primary care level to help primary care providers (PCPs) become more competent and comfortable delivering care. In partnership with Prevent Blindness, this series will use an evidence based approach to improve and empower PCPs with knowledge and confidence to deliver better healthcare across the lifespan, promote the prevention of vision disorders, and improve healthcare for patients who are visually impaired or those patients at risk of losing vision. This program is open to primary healthcare providers throughout the United States.
