Abstract
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. The Chinese Glaucoma Guidelines (2020) formulated important references and suggestions for the treatment of glaucoma, based on the basic national condition of China and considering the latest global progress. To fulfill their guiding effect on clinical work, publicity and promotion of the Guidelines should be intensified to prompt the communication and application. The ophthalmology specialists should pay attention to the quality assessment and reevaluation of the Guidelines regarding their reliability and applicability in clinical work, and promote the evidence-based practice of glaucoma. Continuous feedbacks from clinical practice would enable timely updates and improvement of the Guidelines, thus building a better evidence ecosystem and constantly optimizing the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma in China.
