Glaucoma OCT: As with other adjunctive tests for glaucoma management, will provide information to an ophthalmologist to help them treat you properly. In general, we try to treat the patient's clinical exam status and if that is stable, we often won't treat based just on a change in the test. Discuss your concerns with your ophthalmologist.
