C-13472 O/SP/AS Medical management of glaucoma
Download » Read more......Less

Although glaucoma is largely managed by ophthalmologists in a hospital setting, there are many optometrists who are intending, or already are, practising glaucoma management in a shared care setting, either in their own practice, in a hospital or at a polyclinic.
