If cup to disc ratio size is more than > 0.5 ,then it is called case of glaucoma. In your case right eye ratio is 0.73 and left eye ratio is 0.74 in open angle glaucoma cd ratio > 0.6 in closed angle glaucoma the iop exceeds 40 mm of hg.

Hello glaucoma is a chronic eye condition which causes irreversible damage to the optic nerve of the eye, which carries visual signal from the eye to the brain. The disease cannot be cured, but can only be controlled by medications so as to stop or slow down the progression of the optic nerve damage. Apart from iop and disc changes, perimetry is also a very crucial investigation as far as glaucoma management is concerned. Also, a detailed family history and other systemic risk factors also need to be taken into account while prescribing the correct drops. I am available for consultation if you are seeking a specialist opinion. You are reach me out anytime. I hope this helps, thank you :)
