Summary

A team at the National Healthcare Group Eye Institute in Singapore have developed an augmented reality mobile phone application, EyeCU, to simulate glaucoma progression and enhance understanding about the disease and its course. It is a bilingual (English/Spanish) application that is free-to-download on the Android and Apple app store. As eye care physicians in the South Bronx, the investigators are hopeful that the findings in this study can be extrapolated to our patients in the South Bronx, where poor health literacy, non-adherence to glaucoma medication and poor follow-up remains a large barrier. The investigators hope that by offering the simulation in both English and Spanish, the investigators will not only be able to improve our patients' understanding of glaucoma, but also improve glaucoma treatment adherence and assess our patient population's responsiveness to augmented reality as an educational platform.
