What is Glaucoma?
A condition in which there is progressive and irreversible damage to the optic nerve, (which is the nerve of sight), due to obstruction to the drainage of the fluid within the eyeball. This damage to the optic nerve causes blind spots to develop in the field of vision and if left uncontrolled, total blindness may result.

Infrastructure for the diagnosis & treatment of Glaucoma :

Diagnostics:

Applanation Tonometer - to check the pressur of the eye.	78D & 90D lens - to see the optic nerve.	Tonopen - to check the pressure of the eye.
3 mirror GOLDMANN lens - to see the angle of the eye.	4 mirror ZEISS gonioscopes - to see the angle of the eye.	Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT III) STRATUS ZEISS: This is like a C.T. Scan of the eye.
Humphrey visual field analyzer - to measure the field of vision.	Tomey pachymeter - to measure the central corneal thickness.	TOPCON digital fundus camera - for optic disc photography.
