Note:
Focus groups will be used in order to identify barriers practitioners face in providing myopia control treatment. Focus groups will consist of five optometrists each, with two focus groups held in-person in Houston, Texas and two focus groups held via video-conferencing. In subsequent research, the qualitative data obtained from the focus groups will be used to create a custom online questionnaire to distribute to optometrists. The questionnaire will aim to determine the extent to which each barrier is experienced by optometrists in the United States. Using these research conclusions, investigators will then aim to identify facilitators for overcoming the identified barriers. SAMs 1.1.1
