Trends in and Predictors of Depression Among Participants in the Collaborative Initial Glaucoma Treatment Study (CIGTS).

Depressive symptoms decreased considerably during the first year after treatment initiation, but were elevated in those with impaired VRQOL.

We found limited benefit in binocular testing of VA in the clinical setting as a means of approximating a patient's reported visual functioning.

Development of an 18-Item Measure of Symptom Burden in Patients With Glaucoma From the Collaborative Initial Glaucoma Treatment Study's Symptom and Health Problem Checklist.

These results suggest that the SHPC-18 is a reliable, responsive, and psychometrically sound measure of patient-reported, glaucoma-related symptoms.
