Abstract

Purpose: To present selected cases that highlight the confusions in daily glaucoma practice. Methods: Four cases with raised or normal intraocular pressure (IOP) and definite glaucomatous cupping were investigated. Results: While raised IOP was found in non-glaucomatous etiologies, IOP was normal in established glaucoma in a young patient. Conclusion: Raised IOP and glaucomatous cupping may not be pathognomonic of glaucoma and alternative etiology should be ruled out for appropriate management.
