Long-term Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation Is a Risk Factor for Visual Field Progression in Advanced Glaucoma

Conclusions:

Long-term IOP fluctuations and disc hemorrhage are independent and additive risk factors of visual field progression in advanced glaucoma even at low IOPs. Patients in whom these risk factors are identified require close monitoring and vigorous treatment.
