Brief Summary

The Erlangen Glaucoma Registry is a clinical registry for cross sectional and longitudinal observation of patients with open angle glaucoma (OAG) or glaucoma suspect, founded in 1991. The primary aim is the evaluation of diagnostic and prognostic validity of morphometrical, sensory and hemodynamical diagnostic procedures. No therapeutic studies are performed.
