3. A 56-year-old patient reports to you that he has been diagnosed with glaucoma but it is "no big deal" since his vision is fine. Although prescribed ophthalmic medications to treat glaucoma, he has not been self-administering them, What is the strength of the evidence that prescriptive medications are useful in preventing glaucoma-related complications? Identify the risk he is taking by not adhering to his prescribed medication regimen. Describe how you would educate him to gain his adherence to his prescribed regimen. REFERENCES

Episode 3 Right before the appointment, Tina noticed that she is suffering from intense double vision when looking to objects. The double vision was less intense when looking forward, and her vision when looking left was unaffected. Her husband noticed that her right eye appeared to be turned slightly inward when she looked straight ahead. A day later, Tina noticed that the vision in her left eye started to blur. The neurologist later suggested that the two visual problems she was experiencing were related. The double vision when looking right was found to be caused by cranial nerve palsy—a form of muscle paralysis caused by a dysfunction in one of the cranial nerves. The problem with the left eye was diagnosed as optic neuritis (inflammation). Both of these signs and symptoms, along with the previous episodes, pointed to a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS). The neurologist prescribed oral steroids and ordered an MRI. As with her previous episodes, Tina’s visual symptoms began to…
