| Alternative therapies are a group of diverse medical treatments and products that have not usually been part of the curriculum of traditional medical schools. To help the public and physicians better understand some of these therapies, the American Academy of Ophthalmology creates and publishes "Alternative Therapies Assessments." These are evaluations of various eye care treatments, based on the published scientific evidence on their safety and effectiveness. These assessments are developed by the Academy's Quality of Care and Knowledge Base Development Secretariat with no outside financial support. |
