July consultation #6

I am happy to revisit the case of a 79-year-old man with visually significant cataract and moderate POAG in the right eye and severe POAG in the left eye. We are reminded that he is having difficulty driving at night. I am also concerned about his visual field loss progression in the recent past, despite the fact that his visual field examinations have been relatively stable over the past 1 to 2 years. However, given the amount of optic nerve damage and corresponding visual field loss, the current IOP level is too high in both eyes, despite maximum tolerated medical therapy.
