Abstract

AIM: To present diagnostic particularities, assessment of prognosis, and the need for treatment in a case of normal-tension glaucoma. METHODS: - presentation of clinical changes and investigations supporting the diagnosis; - careful anamnesis that disclosed new elements, useful for the evaluation of the case. RESULTS: after a two-year follow-up period, we can ascertain that the optic atrophy is non-progressive. CONCLUSIONS: the assessment of risk factors and a rigorous anamnesis were significant for the establishment of prognosis and need for treatment.
