Abstract

The early diagnosis and detection of progression are two key–elements in the actual management of glaucoma. The current opinion in clinical practice is to quantify the structural damage for a better follow–up of the patient and the standardization of the results. The present review is a concise survey of literature covering the period of 1990–2010, documenting the evidence–based role of confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy in glaucoma diagnosis and management
