Clinical data set for intraocular pressure lowering procedures in glaucoma and ocular hypertension. It defines the core variables for pre-operative data, surgery and outcomes so services can collect consistent information for audit, benchmarking and research.

This data set provides a standard way to capture information on surgical and laser procedures used to lower intraocular pressure. It covers pre-operative status, the operation note, postoperative interventions and complications, and outcome data from 12 months onwards. The aim is to support consistent recording in electronic patient records so services can compare outcomes fairly and use the data for clinical audit, service improvement and research.
