This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research is testing whether a community-engaged, faith-based program can help Black Americans with glaucoma or at risk for glaucoma get and stay in eye care. The program, called ComBaT Glaucoma, works through churches and community settings to remove barriers to eye care and improve how many people actually use eye care services.
Black Americans have higher rates of glaucoma and are more likely to lose vision from it, yet many don't get regular eye care. This study is exploring whether a program rooted in churches and community trust can help more people get the care they need to prevent vision loss.
