Synopsis
The proceedings of an international conference on ophthalmology are presented in this volume, which covers all aspects of glaucoma. The contributors investigate basic mechanisms of morphology, electrophysiology and changes in the aqueous humour dynamics, neurobiology, biomorphometry and long-term changes of the optic nerve head. Special emphasis is placed on the relationship of morphological and functional changes in the early phases of the disease. Psychophysical tests covering sensitivity, specificity and reliability indices are examined. The effectiveness of various therapy modalities - medical, laser and surgical - are compared, and new antiglaucomatous medications as well as new surgical procedures are introduced.
