    hi my question is this:

    is anyone here a doctor that treats or a patient that receives treatments for glaucoma or age related macular degeneration (AMD)?

    what are the stages of treatments, i.e. what goes on during different visits?

    1. diagnosis
    2. doctor administers a treatment
    3. doctor monitors disease progression
    4. doctor re-fills prescription

    are there any other functions to the visits?

    second, sort of non-related question.

    does anyone work at a medical practice but is not part of the clinical staff? i.e. hospital administration, etc.

    what different functions do you perform?
    why types of interaction do you have with patients?
    what time sinks exists? things that take up more of your time than it should?

    thanks
