Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to develop and test the psychometric properties of a self-report questionaire, the Glaucoma Visual Functioning Questionnaire-40 (GVFQ-40), which was designed to measure the difficulty of daily activities of glaucoma patients and evaluate the effectiveness of clinical treatment or rehabilitation interventions.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
GVFQ-40
GVFQ-40 is a 40-item questionnaire developed to evaluate the visual ability of glaucoma patients in detail. It consists of 40 items and measures the impact of glaucoma on restriction of participation in daily activities in five domains of functioning. Each item is rated on a five-level scale from ''no difficulty'' to ''can't do because of vision''. Another possible response is that the activity is not performed for nonvisual reasons. The GVFQ-40 is administered by a trained interviewer to all enrolled participants. A subset of participants (35 subjects) will complete the GVFQ-40 twice 2 to 3 weeks apart.

Study Arms (2)
Primary Glaucoma
Patients with primary glaucoma diagnosed by glaucoma professionals
