(Titles for each section should not be used; this essay should be continuous prose)
Provide a clear structure for the essay. Explain what the essay will cover and in which order.
A critical analysis must then take place, evaluating the care in place for low vision patients. Consider:
Who are the practitioners/professionals involved in a low vision patient’s care? E.g. optoms, DOs, care groups, GPs, low vision practitioners, occupational health, social services.
What roles do these professionals have?
How often do they have an input?
How do the professionals work together to deliver care?
Is there a specific care pathway?
How/where is care provided?
What input does the patient have?
As this essay is a critical analysis, you must discuss the efficacy of each stage of patient care. Are there different systems/approaches, and how do they compare?
