[Prognosis of the development of pathological conditions in open-angle glaucoma]
Abstract
The authors prepared a matrix of probability of transition for each of the stages of the disease between the particular years of observation of such characteristics as: the visual acuity, visual field, intraocular pressure and the condition of the lens in 435 persons (854 eyes) with simple glaucoma. The greatest probability of an unchanged condition of the optic nerve and a normal visual field at the onset of treatment (0.45 and 0.74). For the severely damaged eyes the indexes amount respectively 0.07 and 0.34.
