[Attention should be paid to the establishment and management of glaucoma records]

Glaucoma is the world's leading cause of irreversible blindness. As a chronic disease, it requires lifelong follow-up and management. In the long-term follow-up of glaucoma patients, a diagnosis and treatment management system is helpful. Despite the availability of various means of informationalized record management, there remain problems and challenges, like a lack of unified file management standards, data incompatibility, and barriers to inter-hospital data sharing, which lead to the failure to establish a comprehensive and standardized glaucoma record for patients. It is necessary to form a standardized management system so as to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma, better maintain the visual function of patients and reduce the burden on society and family.
