What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma represents a group of ocular
conditions in which the level of intraocular
pressure damages the optic nerve causing a loss of
visual function.
" An optic neuropathy characterized by a
pathological process called cupping. Cupping is a
type of optic atrophy which produces nerve fiber
layer defects which results in visual field defects
often associated with elevated IOP, but not
always."
Werner, Bennett, Sowka
