A national survey of diagnostic tests reported by UK community optometrists for the detection of chronic open angle glaucoma [PDF]
, 2011 Purpose: In the UK, the majority of cases of chronic open angle glaucoma are detected by community optometrists following a routine sight test. However, there is potential for variability in case finding strategies used.

The prevalence of glaucoma in a 70‐year‐old Swedish population in the city area of Gothenburg
Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 102, Issue 2, Page 208-215, March 2024.Abstract Purpose To determine the prevalence of and risk factors for open‐angle glaucoma in a population of 70‐year‐olds in Gothenburg, Sweden and to compare the visual function between the glaucoma population and the non‐glaucoma population. Methods Of the entire cohort (n = 1203), 1182 participants responded a questionnaire on self‐reported glaucoma ...
