简要总结
This study will test whether the Support, Educate, Empower (SEE) personalized Glaucoma Coaching Program improves eye drop medication adherence among glaucoma patients compared to enhanced standard care in a randomized controlled clinical trial. As a secondary outcome, the study will test whether glaucoma related distress decreases among SEE program participants compared to the control group.
The study hypothesis is that glaucoma patients with poor adherence who receive motivational-interviewing based counseling and personalized education from a trained non-physician glaucoma coach through the SEE Program will improve their medication adherence compared to glaucoma patients standard care enhanced by additional educational handouts.

研究组 & 干预措施
Personalized Glaucoma Coaching
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 sessions and one call after each subsequent session. Participants can elect to receive any of the following types 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.
干预措施: Personalized Glaucoma Coaching (Behavioral)
Enhanced standard care
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.
干预措施: Enhanced Standard care (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Mean Percent Electronically Monitored Medication Adherence Over Six Months
时间窗: Up to 6 months
Medication adherence will be measured objectively using electronic monitors with a bottle-in-bottle technique where all glaucoma medications are placed inside electronic pill bottles. An adherent event is defined as using an eye drop medication within a specified time window of a dose on the previous day. Adherence will be calculated as the percentage of doses taken on time divided by total doses prescribed over the six-month study period. The calculation censored participants at the time of withdrawal, loss to follow-up, or disengagement (attended the exit visit but may have gone some time before this visit without adherence monitor activity) and their adherence was calculated only during the reduced time on study. Additionally, times noted where monitors malfunctioned or went unused due to vacation or hospitalization were excluded.
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved >= 80% Medication Adherence Over the 6 Month Study Period

Additionally, times noted where monitors malfunctioned or went unused due to vacation or hospitalization were excluded. Continuous percentage adherence was dichotomized to a binary outcome as \>= 80% vs \< 80% medication adherence.
