The Support, Educate, Empower (SEE) Program

This is a six-month personalized glaucoma coaching program where a coach trained in motivational interviewing (MI)-based counseling uses a web based tool that generates tailored education to help glaucoma patients identify their barriers to optimal medication adherence and explore potential solutions during three in-person coaching sessions. The coach provides between-session support through four phone calls, with two phone calls between the first and second session and one phone call after each subsequent session. Participants can elect to receive any of the following type of alarm when a dose of medication is due: visual or audible alert or automated text or phone call reminder. Glaucoma medication adherence will be monitored electronically for all participants between the baseline visit and the exit visit six months later.

Participants will receive non-tailored educational materials about glaucoma from leading sources by mail every 2 months for a total of 3 mailings during the 6-month study period. Glaucoma medication adherence will be monitored electronically for all participants between the baseline visit and the exit visit six months later.
