Models of Care
The Agency for Clinical Innovation (ACI) places a high priority on developing flexible, evidence-based patient-focused models of care. The models of care are supported by easy to use guides and workshops to describe how best to provide care across the many specialty areas represented by the ACI networks.
Importantly, the models of care can be adapted to the various settings found in the NSW health system across metropolitan, rural, regional and remote NSW.

Community Eye Care (C-EYE-C) Model for Glaucoma and Diabetic Retinopathy
The Community Eye Care (C-EYE-C) model of care is a service delivery model for those with, or at risk of developing, glaucoma and/or diabetic retinopathy to prevent avoidable vision loss and blindness.
This is achieved via improving access to appropriate management for people with, or at risk of, diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. It is a collaborative care model for chronic eye-disease patients that shares care between local optometrists (private) and a public hospital eye clinic.
The C-EYE-C model of shared care aims to streamline referral pathways and improve access to ophthalmology services for patients with chronic eye disease, ensuring timely and appropriate care is given.
