| Summary: |
Glaucoma as a chronic and
often asymptomatic disease in its early stages has a
great influence on Quality of Life (QOL). Mostly because
of disturbances in visual functions like damage to the
visual field, lower visual acuity, the psychological
impact of the diagnosis, side effects and the cost of
treatment. Evaluation of QOL is very useful instrument
which helps to decide about the ways of treatment.
Especially if they are equally beneficial but have
totally different psychological impact. Considering
patients’ needs, satisfying their expectations and
education, there is a guarantee of keeping the
therapeutic indications and high efficiency of treatment. |
