Congenital Glaucoma

Keywords
visual acuity, prognosis epidemiology
Brief summary
Evidence of a relationship between age at discovery of congenital glaucoma and visual acuity at 4 years of age. The delay in diagnosis is a factor of poor visual acuity. Will justify the implementation of information programs with health and education professionals in order to improve the functional prognosis of patients with congenital glaucoma.
Detailed description
Prospective multicentre prospective cohort Enabling the identification and follow-up of an almost exhaustive population of incidents of congenital glaucoma in 23 ophthalmology centers in France Inclusion over 4 years Epidemiological data, all reports of consultation, medical and surgical procedures collected in an E-CRF. Database for gene research related to congenital glaucoma to provide screening, genetic counseling and personalized care
Interventions
Evaluation of the prognosis of different surgery in congenital glaucoma
