    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Optometry

    Background:

    • Glaucoma accounts for 12% of all blindness in the United States.
    • Understanding glaucoma is crucial for optometric practices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide paraoptometrists with an overview of the glaucoma disease process.
    • To clarify the paraoptometric's role in patient examination and management of glaucoma.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of glaucoma disease processes relevant to optometric practice.
    • Discussion of the paraoptometric's responsibilities.

    Main Results:

    • The abstract outlines the disease process of glaucoma.
    • It details the paraoptometric's role in patient care.

    Conclusions:

    • Paraoptometrists play a vital role in identifying and managing glaucoma.
    • Effective patient examination and management are key to mitigating vision loss from glaucoma.
