Abstract
The risks of damage to the visual field in a previously undamaged eye of patients with uniocular chronic open-angle glaucoma was found to be 1 out of 4 after 5 years of follow-up. The prognosis of the second eye was worse if the cup/disc ratio was greater than or equal to 0.5, a haemorrhage was present, and the pressure was raised.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
