abstract: Vision lost to glaucoma is as irrecoverable as it is asymptomatic. Early detection by attending medical practitioners is vital if treatment is to halt the disease before such disabling visual loss occurs. This article discusses simple measures to use in the early diagnosis of this potentially disabling condition.
