Refining Decisions for Identifying Primary Care Patients Who Require A Work-Up for Glaucoma: Intraocular Pressure Changes with Central Corneal Thickness

PURPOSE:
The factors associated with the increased risk of glaucoma include intraocular pressure (IOP), central corneal thickness (CCT), vertical cup-to-disc ratio, visual field index, age, and diabetes mellitus. We have investigated the relation of IOP with CCT in normal, healthy pre-presbyopic persons.
