Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Intraocular pressure	GAT: =24mmHg or =22mmHg on two separate occasions	5 year
Primary	Glaucoma	The presence of glaucomatous optic neuropathy with visual field loss compatible with glaucoma. Glaucomatous optic neuropathy defined as loss of neuroretinal rim (notch or erosion), a vertical cup-to-disc ratio of more than 0.7, nerve fiber layer defect attributable to glaucoma, or both.	5 year
Primary	Acute Primary Angle Closure	Presence of at least 2 of the following symptoms: ocular or periocular pain; nausea, vomiting, or both; an antecedent history of intermittent blurring of vision with haloes and IOP of more than 30 mmHg and presence of at least 3 of the following signs: conjunctival injection, corneal epithelial edema, mid-dilated unreactive pupil, glaukomflecken, and shallow anterior chamber;	5 year
