Primary Open Angle Glaucoma,ess. Unfortunately, many patients are unaware of their disease, as it is typically asymptomatic until late in the disease process. This optic neuropathy has characteristic, usually progressive, visual field loss and optic nerve cupping and is often associated with elevated intraocular pressure. Many

Normal-Tension Glaucoma,verview of the IOP-related and optic-nerve-related risk factors for NTG is presented. Patterns of disc and visual field damage and progression seen in NTG are discussed, with many clinical examples presented. The significance of optic disc hemorrhages and peripapillary atrophy in NTG is explored. Th

Primary and Secondary Angle-Closure Glaucomas,atients with angle closure, primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) is the most common diagnosis. Angle closure results from apposition of the peripheral iris to the trabecular meshwork (iridotrabecular contact – ITC). Four current methods for diagnosing the classification of angle-closure glaucoma ar

Glaucoma Risk Factors: Intraocular Pressure,mic contour, and even the latest generation noncontact tonometry also produce accurate and repeatable results that rival or exceed Goldmann applanation. Where accurate IOP is not crucial or a tonometer not available, the experienced examiner can use scleral palpation to estimate IOP..Within the popu
