Primary open angle glaucoma is diagnosed principally on the basis of relevant visual field defects, typically supported by evidence of nerve fibre layer and optic nerve damage. An intraocular pressure above the normal range is an important risk facto

Various modes of screening for glaucoma were defined in terms of different combinations of the three main tests (ophthalmoscopy (O), tonometry (T), and perimetry (P)), together with associated referral criteria. The number of referrals and true posit

A survey of 133 optometrists who used a non-contact tonometer indicates that in only a half of patients tested were more than two readings per eye taken. Most optometrists made the number of readings conditional on the intraocular pressure (IOP) show

A panel of 101 primary examiners (optometrists or their ancillary staff) in England and Wales prospectively recorded the time taken to examine the central visual fields of each of 10 (or more) of their patients. The results indicate that the time dep

This paper is based on a prospective survey covering 275,600 sight tests by optometrists in England and Wales. It analyses the age and sex distribution of 1402 referrals for suspected glaucoma and 456 confirmed cases of the disease. The proportion of

In a survey covering 275,600 eye examinations by optometrists, 0.55% resulted in a referral to a medical practitioner for suspected glaucoma. Some 85-90% of the referred patients subsequently attended for examination by a consultant ophthalmologist.

The number of cases of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in England and Wales is estimated to increase by a third over the 20 years to 2021, and then continue upwards at a similar pace to 2031. The estimates are based on official population projecti

Prevalence data for primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), taken from eight population surveys, was smoothed by curve-fitting to derive composite estimates with respect to quinqennial age groups from 40-44 to 85-89 years. These were applied to national

A review of 15 population-based glaucoma prevalence surveys in Western Europe, the US, the West Indies and Japan shows that the proportion of patients with the condition who had previously gone undetected was generally at least 50%. Possible reasons

This study analyses records from 189 optometric practices in England and Wales on the glaucoma screening of 123,415 patients aged40 years during a prospective 6 month period. Its purpose is to compare the effectiveness of the various modes of screeni
