Effect of Lowering IOP in Glaucoma Suspects With HM

HM is associated with increased prevalence of glaucoma. However, accurate diagnosis of glaucoma in HM is a challenge. More and more viewpoints had been raised that HM eyes with optic disc head damage or/and visual field (VF) defects should been classified as glaucoma suspects. IOP is the only modifiable parameter in glaucoma and glaucoma suspect patients. However, the decision to begin treatment to lower IOP in the glaucoma suspect patient is complex, especially for glaucoma suspects with HM. There are lack of guideline and consensus of treatment choices. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the effect of medically IOP lowering on the progression of glaucoma suspects with HM.
