Twenty-four papers from the July 1988 symposium review current research and thought on glaucoma and discuss the scale of the problem, ocular physiology, early detection and perimetry, and management of open angle glaucoma, of secondary cases, and of complicated glaucoma. Among the topics: the epidemiology of chronic glaucoma, diurnal variation of IOP, strategies and methods of screening, microcomputer diagnosis, treatment by various techniques using lasers, pediatric glaucomas, pseudo-exfoliation-syndrome, and complicated glaucomas (such as neovascular, angle-closure, inflammatory), and cases in the aphakic/pseudophakic eye.
