 Glaucoma is rarely diagnosed due to lack of tonometers. Early stages often escape diagnosis due to the subtlety of the signs. It is commonly secondary to equine recurrent [[Uveitis - Donkey|uveitis]].

		+
		+	==Clinical Signs and Diagnosis==
		+
		+	A '''swollen globe''' should always be checked for increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Raised IOP is measured using a tonometer, following topical and [[Local Anaesthetics\|local anaesthesia]] to reduce the pull of the extra ocular muscles.
		+
		+	Signs are:
		+	* Corneal oedema
		+	* Blindness or visual defects
		+	* Dilated, fixed pupil
