Detecting Progression in Glaucoma (COPE # 71206-GL)
Eric Schmidt, OD, FAAO
This course will discuss progressive glaucoma, making use of clinical clues and risk factors to gain a clearer understanding of when the disease is not controlled and how to best address that. Clinical findings and ancillary test results will be used to illustrate how to detect glaucoma progression earlier in the course of the disease.
