Advancing Ocular Health Through Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Nursing, Ophthalmology and Epidemiology Strategies
Main Article Content

.
Abstract
Ocular health plays a pivotal role in maintaining overall well-being and quality of life. To address the complex challenges associated with ocular health, interdisciplinary collaboration between nursing, ophthalmology, and epidemiology has emerged as a crucial strategy. This collaborative approach brings together professionals from diverse backgrounds to enhance knowledge, improve patient care, and develop innovative strategies for preventing, diagnosing, and treating ocular disorders.

UKBEVC established in 2014 (Cunningham et al., 2020). The UKBEVC brings together over 100 researchers from ophthalmology, epidemiology, optometry, nursing and data science. Leveraging data and biosamples from the UK Biobank study, the consortium performs genetic and epidemiological analyses identifying risk factors for glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration and myopia (Rudnicka et al., 2015; Sobrin and Seddon, 2014; Verhoeven et al., 2013).
