The word glaucoma came from the Greek word ‘glaukos’ which meant ‘clouded with a blue-green hue’. In the Hippocratic Aphorisms the term glaucoma was used to describe blindness coming on in advancing years associated with a glazed appearance of the pupil. The Hippocratic writings make no clear distinction between cataract and glaucoma.
Glaucoma – I
FP1425: Structural and Functional Correlation of Bleb Post Trabeculectomy
Dr.Nancy Sehdev, Dr. Suhas Haldipurkar, Dr. Vijay Shetty, Dr. (Mrs.) Dhamankar PR, Dr. Ravneet Chadha
Bleb morphology is an important clinical parameter as an indicator for bleb function. Imaging techniques like ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have been used to study bleb morphology(1).
FP1502 : Aravind Aqueous Drainage Implant Vs Ahmed Glaucoma Valve : Has Indigenous Aadi Made a Difference?
Dr. Vanita Pathak Ray, V15422, Dr. Divya Rao
To compare indigenously manufactured non-valved glaucoma drainage tube (GDD), Aurolab Aqueous Drainage Implant (AADI) with valved GDD, Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV)
FP18 : Effect of Ocular Torsion on the Followability of Isnt Rule By the Rnfl Using SD -OCT
Dr. Paaraj Dave D13919, Dr. Jitendra Nenumal Jethani, Dr. Juhi Shah
Ocular torsion is measured by calculating the disc-foveal angle (DFA) formed by a horizontal line extending from optic disc center and a line joining the center of the disc to the fovea.

Anil K Mandal,1 Seelam Bharani 2, Vijaya K Gothwal2,3
Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is mostly inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder.
FP692 : Does Reduction in Intraocular Pressure Affect the Optic Nerve Head Blood Flow?
Dr. Zia Sultan Pradhan, P13884, Dr.Harsha Rao, Dr. Dhanaraj Rao A S
To determine if reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP) is associated with alterations in the peripapillary and optic nerve head (ONH) vessel density.
FP753 : Psychological Assessment of Glaucoma Patients in Central India
Dr. Rohan Jain, J17093, Dr. Rakesh Shakya, Dr. DhananjayGiri
To determine the prevalence and risk factors for anxiety and depression among glaucoma patients and assess their relationship with quality of life (QOL).
FP774 : Estimation of Intraocular Pressure (Iop) Lowering Effect of Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT).
Dr. Prabhat Nangia, N16925, Dr. George Ronnie J
Prospective study of 51 eyes of 43 patients that underwent SLT. Age, type of glaucoma, pre SLT IOP, lens status (phakic vs. pseudophakic) and number of anti glaucoma medications (AGMs) were recorded prior to SLT. Post laser IOP was recorded at 1 week and 1, 3 and 6 months.
