title: [Home-monitoring in ophthalmology--prerequisites for an improvement in quality of life: conclusions from the management research study Teletonometry Mecklenburg-Vorpommern].
abstract: Home-monitoring represents an innovative and growing health service area in which suitable conditions have to be created for the attending doctor and also for the patient. For this it is necessary to offer the technical supply and also to establish simultaneously organisational structures in the cooperation between the doctor and the patient based on prevalent experiences of general ambulant care. The medical care as a whole can be optimised to be more patient-orientated by integrating assistant medical staff and by establishing modern IT communication channels. The evolving home-monitoring in consideration of the doctor-patient experiences can contribute to an improvement in the patient's quality of life.
