Editorial Policy

Tennessee Eye Care is committed to providing accurate, helpful, and trustworthy health information to our patients and community. This policy explains how we create, review, and maintain the educational content on our website.

Who Creates Our Content

All health and medical content on our website is written by our clinical team or by trained health writers working under the supervision of our providers. Content is developed to help patients understand eye conditions, treatments, and what to expect from their care.

Medical Review Process

Our health content is reviewed by licensed eye care providers (OD, MD, or DO) at Tennessee Eye Care. Our medical reviewers verify that:

• Clinical information is accurate and current
• Treatment descriptions reflect services we actually provide
• Content aligns with established medical guidelines and best practices
• Information is presented clearly without exaggeration

When a provider has medically reviewed an article, their name and credentials appear at the top of it, linked to their profile. We add a reviewer's name only after that provider has reviewed and approved the current version of the article; when an article is substantially rewritten, it is reviewed again before the byline is shown.

How We Keep Content Current

Eye care evolves as new research, treatments, and technologies emerge. We review our educational content regularly and update it when:

• New clinical evidence changes best practices
• We add or modify services at our practice
• A provider or reader identifies an error or outdated information
• Enough time has passed that a routine review is warranted

Updated articles display an "Updated" date so readers know when the content was last revised.

Our Standards

We follow these principles when creating content:

Accuracy: We only publish information that our clinical team can verify. When referencing statistics or clinical guidelines, we cite reputable sources such as the American Academy of Ophthalmology, National Eye Institute, or peer-reviewed research.

Honesty: We clearly distinguish between conditions and treatments we handle in-house versus those requiring referral to other specialists. We do not overstate outcomes or make guarantees about results.

Clarity: Medical topics can be complex. We aim to explain conditions and treatments in plain language without unnecessary jargon, while still being medically precise.

Patient-first: Our content is designed to inform and empower patients, not to replace professional medical advice. We encourage readers to discuss their specific situation with their eye care provider.
