Treatment
Information on Indigenous Australians use of eye health treatment services, including eye procedures and surgery, allows for ongoing monitoring and for identification of particular services, regions or groups within the Indigenous population, where access to and use of services can be improved. These measures provide information on the use of health services as well as the prevalence or particular conditions in the population.
