Objective To analyze the impact of extended care based on the timeliness incentive model on postoperative complications and self-efficacy of glaucoma patients. Methods 150 glaucoma patients who received treatment in our hospital from September 2023 to September 2025 were selected as the research subjects. They were randomly divided into the control group (n=75) and the study group (n=75). The control group received routine care, while the study group implemented extended care based on the timeliness incentive model on the basis of the control group. The incidence of postoperative complications, self-efficacy (General Self-Efficacy Scale, GSES), and quality of life (World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Brief Version, WHOQOL-BREF) of the two groups were compared. Results In the comparison of the total incidence of postoperative complications, the study group was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05); after the intervention, the scores of GSES and WHOQOL-BREF of both groups improved significantly, and the improvement in the study group was greater than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Extended care based on the timeliness incentive model can effectively reduce the risk of postoperative complications in glaucoma patients and help improve self-efficacy and quality of life. It is worthy of clinical promotion.
