Abstract Purpose:We investigated the current status of glaucoma patients and compared it to a previous survey in 2016.

Patients & Methods:A total of 5,303 patients(5,303 eyes)with glaucoma or ocular hypertension who had visited from March 8 to 14 in 2020 at 78 institutions with the approval of the survey were included in this study. The type of glaucoma, history of surgery, and number of medications were investigated.

Results:The diagnosis was normal-tension glaucoma in 51.1% of subjects, primary open-angle glaucoma in 30.9% of subjects, secondary glaucoma in 8.2% of subjects, and others. The mean number of medications was 1.8±1.3:no current medications in 10.2% of subjects, a single medication in 41.5% of subjects, two medications in 23.0% of subjects, three medications in 14.2% of subjects, and others. The breakdown of patients receiving a single medication was prostaglandin(PG)analogs in 66.7% of patients, β(αβ)-blockers in 22.1% of patients, and others. The breakdown of patients receiving two medications was PG/β fixed combination in 42.8% of patients, PG analogs and β(αβ)-blockers in 13.3% of patients, carbonic anhydrase inhibitor/β-blocker fixed combination in 12.0% of patients and others.

Conclusion:Compared to the previous survey, the number of patients taking PG analogs significantly decreased among those receiving a single medication. In contrast, the number of patients taking the PG/β fixed combination significantly increased and the number of patients taking PG analogs and β-blockers significantly decreased among those receiving two medications.
