Prevalence and determinants of glaucoma : an epidemiologic approach (The Rotterdam Study) [PDF]
, 1995 Glaucoma is an eye disease characterized by damage to the optic nerve head and related visual field defects, often accompanied by elevated intraocular pressure. Glaucoma is an important cause of blindness, particularly in the elderly.
