Advancing evidence-based glaucoma care: Methodological, therapeutic, and structural changes in the 6th edition of the European Glaucoma Society guidelines in the context of the Polish Ophthalmological Society Recommendations

This article presents selected recommendations included in the 6th Edition of European Glaucoma Society (EGS) guidelines and highlights key differences compared to the previous (5th) and the latest revisions of Polish Ophthalmology Society (PTO) guidelines. The current edition is primarily an update to the earlier guidelines, incorporating the context of new technologies, the results of recent scientific research, and responses to important clinical questions - including those informed by input from the Experts by Experience (EbE-EGS) patient panel. These guidelines constitute a comprehensive, coherent, and evidence-based set of information and recommendations, useful both for making complex therapeutic decisions and in everyday clinical practice.
