Abstract

Analysis of subjective evaluation of glaucoma significance in all of the studied patients’ cohorts revealed that it is subject to the negative impact of such factors as advanced stage of the disease, old age, administration of out-of-date hypotensive medications and more invasive surgical IOP-lowering procedures.

Keywords
