The focus of this segment is how veterinarians can empower owners in the management of a pet with glaucoma, in an effort to preserve vision, through at home monitoring of intraocular pressure. Discussion includes: - Why frequent rechecks of intraocular pressure (IOP) at the veterinarian's office are great, but may not be enough for the individual patient - When to consider suggesting the option of at home monitoring of IOP to a client - Setting the client up for at home monitoring of IOP - Considerations and best practices for at home monitoring of IOP Running time: 9 mins Free registration for Premium Membership subscribers (http://vetvine.com/article/181/evidence-based-update-subscriptions)
