Abstract
At this time, there is no comprehensive and specific definition of glaucoma. Diagnostic tests such as retinal nerve fiber layer observation, scanning laser polarimetry, and confocal scanning laser tomography may improve the diagnosis and detection of glaucoma. Also, new functional tests, including short-wavelength automated perimetry, may provide better detection of glaucoma.Keywords
