Book excerpt: This text provides a practical and expert problem-solving approach to the diagnosis and management of the glaucoma patient. The authors place emphasis on an approach to chronic, year-in, year-out care of the glaucoma patient - one of the most challenging management issues of the general ophthalmologists' practice. The first section of the book reviews the differential diagnosis of the patients who present with signs and symptoms suggestive of glaucoma, such as elevated pressure, abnormal optic nerve head, abnormal visual field and abnormal anterior chamber angle. The second section focuses on the chronic management of glaucoma. The authors describe the thought process/clinical decisions used to formulate and monitor treatment. In particular, they describe: how to determine the vigour with which to treat and monitor the individual patient; and how to determine if treatment is adequate and/or successful.

Download or read book Glaucoma written by Massimo Bucci and published by Springer. This book was released on 1996-12 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume reports lectures and discussions presented at the International Congress on Glaucoma, held in Rome on 2-4 February, 1996. The Congress has been designed to clarify and possibly to define the fundamental steps for managing glaucoma patients. "Decision making in therapy" does not mean that the conference sessions have been devoted to therapeutic problems only, even if semeiologic and diagnostic problems are pertinent when aimed at successful therapy. Actually, it is necessary to distinguish the onset of glaucoma from ocular hypertension, to decide if and how to start treatment and the methods to assess its effectiveness, to understand if the failure of medical therapy justifies surgery and, above all, if intraocular pressure is, in any case, the most important risk factor to treat. Particular relevance has been given to normal-pressure glaucoma, whose physiopatho logical and clinical characteristics are still highly controversial. Two round tables were devoted to the recent advances in the treatment of glaucoma, which aims at lowering intraocular pressure, directly improving the eye trophism and regenerating the areas damaged by the disease. All ophthalmologists, particularly the younger ones, have had the opportunity to capi talize on the experience and knowledge of distinguished experts from different parts of the world. This has been an invaluable and perhaps unique opportunity for all of us to express our doubts and to enhance our scientific background.
