Glaucoma is a comprehensive, ready-reckoner reference on glaucoma for the general ophthalmologist and postgraduate student, built to answer exactly what a busy clinic demands: fast, reliable, well-illustrated guidance on diagnosis and management. Structured across 14 chapters, it opens with the fundamentals of intraocular pressure, optic nerve head assessment, and perimetry before moving into every major investigative modality used in glaucoma practice today. Dedicated chapters cover primary congenital, primary angle-closure, primary open-angle, and secondary glaucoma, followed by comprehensive guidelines on medical management, lasers in glaucoma, and surgical management. Detailed colour clinical and investigative pictures accompany each test and procedure, showing exactly what to look for. A chapter of real-time multiple cases you encounter in practice and a unique closing chapter on the 'journey of a glaucoma patient' — told from both the patient's and the physician's perspective — round out a text designed to be picked up mid-consultation, not just read cover to cover. Who This Book Is For: General Ophthalmologists: a quick chair-side reference for diagnosing and managing every major glaucoma subtype seen in routine practice. Ophthalmology Postgraduate and DNB Students: a structured, exam-relevant walkthrough of glaucoma diagnostics and management written by a long-serving DNB teacher. Residents Rotating Through Glaucoma Clinics: step-by-step guidance on when and how to perform key investigations. Why This Book Helps: Cuts through information overload: concentrates the essential glaucoma knowledge a general ophthalmologist actually needs into one concise volume. Builds investigative confidence: explains not just what each test shows but when and how to order it. Bridges theory and real practice: real-time case discussions show how findings translate into management decisions. Improves patient counseling: the dedicated patient-journey chapter helps physicians address patient fears and improve compliance. Key Features: Covers all major glaucoma subtypes: congenital, angle-closure, open-angle, and secondary glaucoma Dedicated chapters on IOP, optic nerve head evaluation, perimetry, and ophthalmic imaging Detailed colour pictures illustrating investigative findings and interpretation Full spectrum of management covered: medical therapy, lasers, and surgical techniques Dedicated chapter of real-time cases plus a unique patient-journey chapter for counseling
