Traditional eye medicine use by newly presenting ophthalmic patients to a teaching hospital in South-eastern Nigeria: socio-demographic and clinical correlates
BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 10/26/09
Eze BI et al. – The incidence of TEM use among new ophthalmic outpatients at UNTH is low. The reasons for TEM use are amenable to positive change through enhanced delivery of promotive, preventive, and curative public eye care services. This has implications for eye care planners and implementers. To reverse the trend, the authors suggest strengthening of eye care programmes, even distribution of eye care resources, active collaboration with orthodox eye care providers and traditional medical practitioners, and intensification of research efforts into the pharmacology of TEMs.
