Glaucoma treatment options and patient management
Prevalence, burden, risk factors and signs of glaucoma
Metabolomics in primary open amgle glaucoma: A systemic review and meta-analysis
Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) is an important tool in the diagnosis, evaluation and follow up of glaucoma patients. Even if we are dealing with a primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) or a primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patient, the mechanism of angle closure can be revealed by performing an UBM.
Open-angle and narrow-angle forms of glaucoma are reviewed, including a description of the pathophysiology, risk factors, screening, disease monitoring, and treatment options.
Summaries of published research on glaucoma treatments
Objectives: To report the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) by age and sex and the prevalence of glaucoma.
This guideline covers diagnosing and managing glaucoma in people aged 18 and over.
