Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2019-20

La asignatura Patología Ocular y Salud Pública se conforma de dos partes diferenciadas. La parte correspondiente a Patología Ocular tiene un enfoque meramente clínico, es decir, las distintas Patologías Oculares se estudian a partir de la sintomatología y semiología de las distintas entidades nosológicas, incidiendo así mismo tanto en el pronóstico funcional como en la terapéutica. Para ello, la asignatura se divide en los bloques correspondientes teniendo en cuenta este aspecto clínico, siguiendo una metodología de Casos, es decir, aprendizaje basado en problemas, muy adecuado para el estudio de las asignaturas de Ciencias de la Salud. La parte correspondiente a Salud Pública tiene una orientación fundamentalmente práctica y poblacional. Los contenidos planificados están orientados a la adquisición de conocimientos y habilidades para la aplicación de la metodología epidemiológica y los principios de la Promoción y Educación para la Salud el estudio y diseño de intervenciones sobre las principales patologías visuales.
