Hereditary cupping without glaucoma
editThis causes me no end of issues when I go to the optometrist, but my father has deep cupping as have all of the children in the family. Basically, we have a high cup to disc ratio naturally. It was deep when we were first tested by the eye doctor and it has stayed at that ratio throughout my life. As a result, every time we get a new eye doctor, we have to go through the same array of glaucoma tests before the doctor is convinced that we're not in the midst of glaucoma. Frankly, it's rather annoying. -Fuzzy (talk) 18:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
Needs clarification and citation
editThis article would improve if it had clarification (perhaps figures) and some additional references. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.173.196.120 (talk) 15:38, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
glaucoma and high intraocular pressure are not synonyms
editHi, I changed the sentence that was implying that glaucoma and high intraocular pressure was the same. Although high intraocluar pressure is in most cases the (main) reason for glaucoma, there are also glaucoma variants with normal intraocular pressure (<21mmHg) and vice versa not everyone with high intraocular pressure has a glaucoma. The guidlines changed same years ago ;-) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.230.1.27 (talk) 09:47, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
