Overdiagnosis of open-angle glaucoma in the general population: the Thessaloniki Eye Study.

The overdiagnosis of OAG was substantial in this elderly, Caucasian population. The overdiagnosis of glaucoma has not been previously addressed in population-based studies and needs to be further explored.

Tolerable rates of visual field progression in a population-based sample of patients with glaucoma.

The majority of patients with glaucoma in our study would have a maximum tolerable rate of progression slower than -1dB/year in their better eye.

Twelve-Year Incidence of Open-angle Glaucoma: The Thessaloniki Eye Study.

The incidence of OAG was similar or higher compared with other White populations. The incidence of glaucoma in those with PEX was higher compared with the incidence of glaucoma in those without PEX.
