Glaucoma Screening and Testing

After preliminary testing special tests such as, Gonioscopy, Field Testing, Measurement of Corneal Thickness (Pachymetry), and Retinal Nerve fibre layer analysis (RNFL) by optical coherence tomography (OCT) will be carried out as required. If laser treatment is recommended for Glaucoma you will be given a specific date and time for surgery on an out-patient basis. When surgery is required you must under-go a pre-operative physical evaluation and then a surgery will date will be given. Surgery is done on an out-patient basis.
