Abstract: Objective To survey the current opinions of the ophthalmic medical staffs on glaucoma continuous health management. Design Cross-sectional survey. Participants A total of 1329 questionnaires (WeChat customers) were collected from 31 provinces. Methods An online questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information on current opinions and the actual status of clinical practice regarding glaucoma continuous health management. Main Outcome Measures Ophthalmologists’ opinions and satisfaction degree with glaucoma continuous health management. Results Among the 1329 questionnaires, 98.42% believed that it is very important to carry out continuous health management for glaucoma patients, but only 17% were satisfied with the status of glaucoma management, and 26.94% of the participants had developed glaucoma management. 66.37% had the plan to carry out continuous health management of glaucoma but faced various difficulties. 57.56% participants supported that primary open-angle glaucoma should be included in continuous health management as the most priority. 52.82% considered that the chronic non-communicable disease surveillance information system model was the best mode. Hospitals with more than 3000 glaucoma outpatients per year had a higher proportion (62.07%) for glaucoma management (P<0.05). The proportion of tertiary hospitals (31.1%) that had carried out glaucoma management was significantly higher than that of secondary hospitals (14.8 %) (P<0.05). Conclusions Most ophthalmologists have realized that continuous health management is important for glaucoma patients and wanted to carry it out actively. However, the current status of implementation is not promising and needs to be standardized and fully promoted. (Ophthalmol CHN, 2022, 31: 281-286)
