For the World Glaucoma Association Consensus V, our topic was Glaucoma Screening, both for open-angle glaucoma and angle-closure glaucoma. Global experts were assembled beginning in January 2008 to participate in the Project Forum E-Room, a unique aspect to facilitate discussion of each of the consensus meetings. With each of the prior meetings, arriving at the consensus was circuitous and filled with compromises, and this meeting had a similar path. The consensus process provided an excellent opportunity to critically assess the evidence relating to glaucoma screening and develop consensus statements. As with previous ones, the entire process was stimulating, educational, and thought-provoking for all participants and attendees.

Glaucoma is a term used to describe many different eye diseases which gradually weaken and reduce vision, often without outward symptoms. Most forms of glaucoma are caused by a problem with drainage within the eye, and there are a number of different recognised types. Despite all our available medical advances, unfortunately as yet loss of vision from glaucoma is irreversible. In this book the editors have compiled 17 chapters on the most up to date glaucoma surgery worldwide, including laser treatment, implants and non-penetrative surgery. As the editors themselves say – ‘even though we still do not fully understand the mechanisms and genetic background to the conditions known as glaucoma, we are able to offer palliative and sometime curable therapies.’ Thus the book provides essential information to ophthalmic surgeons and practitioners who need to update and maintain their knowledge and skills when combating the multitude of glaucoma problems.
