Introduction: The prevalence of post-cataract surgery infection or endophthalmitis in Bali is increasing. Educating patients on post-cataract surgical care is one preventive intervention that can be implemented. Targeted, purposeful, effective, and efficient education can be achieved through good educational management by nurses. The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of nurses in managing education for post-cataract surgery patients.
Methods: This study used a qualitative design with a descriptive phenomenological approach. Participants consisted of 16 ophthalmic nurses selected using purposive sampling. Data collection techniques involved in-depth interviews using semi-structured interview guides. Data analysis techniques used thematic analysis from Braun and Clark.
Results: This study revealed four themes, namely suboptimal planning function, suboptimal organizing function, suboptimal implementation function, and suboptimal control function.
Conclusions: The management of post-cataract surgery patient care education is generally not optimal and needs improvement at every stage of management function. Nurses need to increase their knowledge and awareness of the importance of education management as well as support facilities and infrastructure from the hospital.
