ABSTRACT Objective: Endeavor to improve (i) the quality of Primary Eye Care with the aid of an Eye Health Care Programme and (ii) the resourcing Primary Eye Care in Ministry of Health Institutions in 200. Method: In this descriptive study, staff were randomly selected from 84 health institutions and representing 36 primary health institutions to carry out quality assurance procedures. Oph- thalmologists trained in this evaluation were field staff who evaluated the resource status, such as health staff, space for eye care deliv- ery, instruments, materials for health education, referring cases (for continuous medical education of the primary health staff ), drugs for eye care, etc., in each health institution. In addition to availability, the standards of eye care delivery were also estimated. Results: The health institutes of Oman have adequate resources for Primary Eye Care. Additional requirement of ophthalmic loupes and medicaments would further improve Primary Eye Care in Oman. Conclusion: It is recommended that such a review of the health care programme and its resources and quality be periodically conducted as a part of a system of quality assurance in primary health care. Key words: Primary Health Centers, Oman, Eye Health Care Program, Quality assurance, Quality improvement
