Red Book
Glaucomas are a group of relatively common optic neuropathies, in which there is pathological loss of retinal ganglion cells, progressive loss of sight and associated alteration in the retinal nerve fibre layer and optic nerve head.
Evidence supports screening people at higher risk for glaucoma (A). General practitioners (GPs) have an important role in identifying those at increased risk for glaucoma and referring them for testing. There is no consensus on the recommended frequency of screening for at-risk groups.1,2
