Talk:Cup-to-disc ratio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Hereditary cupping without glaucoma

This causes me no end of issues when I go to the optometrist, but my father has deep cupping as have all of the children in the family. Basically, we have a high cup to disc ratio naturally. It was deep when we were first tested by the eye doctor and it has stayed at that ratio throughout my life. As a result, every time we get a new eye doctor, we have to go through the same array of glaucoma tests before the doctor is convinced that we're not in the midst of glaucoma. Frankly, it's rather annoying. -Fuzzy (talk) 18:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
