I'm sure everyone here has had some sort of changes to their vision since their diagnosis with glaucoma. If you are interested in helping research into glaucoma, and also improving the relationship between clinicians and patients please fill in this survey.

Thanks for this opportunity to explain, in a formalised way, the effect on my sight. The medics are only concerned with VAs and HVFA performance, and there is a complete gap in understanding between routine optometric care and registration for VI, yet the majority with glaucoma exist in this hiatus and have symptoms such as those itemised in the survey (which I have completed and submitted). I am an optometrist; my diagnosis followed a demonstration of the first Pulsair, when the rep was rather surprised to find my IOPs over 30 ! Good luck with your work.

Hi there, thank you for your response and completing my survey. I am glad to know that the majority of your symptoms were covered in my survey, as this was the aim of working alongside glaucoma patients to develop this in their own words.
