Abstract | Synopsis: The course will discuss how residents and general ophthalmologists can determine if there is progression of glaucoma, which is essential to aid further management. Assessments including slit lamp biomicroscopy, fundus photo, optical coherence tomography (retinal nerve fibre layer and ganglion cell complex; trend and event analysis) and visual field. Also, situations which make analysis difficult, such as in high myopia will be discussed. Objective: At the conclusion of the course, audience can get an overview of how they can use various techniques to assess glaucoma progression, the advantages and short-coming of each technique, and how they can integrate anatomical and functional assessment to help them derive a decision on when to step up the treatment. |
