7:30pm–9:30pm
The Pressure is On: Managing Challenging Cases in Glaucoma
Mark Dunbar, OD, FAAO
COPE # 64600-GL. Challenging glaucoma cases will be presented that have difficult management and treatment considerations. Is it glaucoma? Has this patient progressed? Do we need to add or change therapy? These questions will be discussed in addition to asking which pressure in glaucoma is most important: IOP, perfusion pressure, or cerebral spinal fluid pressure.
