PLAN:
1. Educated patient on findings from today's exam. OCT RNFL findings are stable 
at this time. No treatment indicated at this time but will 
ontinue to monitor superior rim OD for progressive/glaucomatous 
like changes. Monitor as follows: 
a. IOP 05/2016
b. repeat OCT 12/2016 complete exam
c. repeat photos 12/2016 complete exam
d. repeat visual field 05/2016
e. repeat gonioscopy 05/2016
f. repeat pachymetry PRN
g. repeat GDx 05/2016 
2. Monitor at complete exam 12/2016
3. Very mild ERM. Monitor with amsler grid returning with any changes. Monitor 
at complete exam 12/2016
4. Encouraged good blood pressure control; monitor complete exam/photos 12/2016
5. Sent Rx to optical shop. Monitor 12/2016. 
6. Educated patient on findings today and prescribed ketotifen BID OU. Monitor 
at VF visit 5/2016.
