Predictors and long-term patterns of medication adherence to glaucoma treatment in Denmark-an observational registry study of 30 100 Danish patients with glaucoma.

Background: Self-treatment with glaucoma medication (eye drops) has been associated with adherence challenges. Poor adherence results in worse outcomes in terms of visual field loss.

Objective: To investigate patterns in medication adherence among Danish patients with glaucoma in relation to selected predictors of adherence, long-term adherence patterns, and long-term societal economic consequences of poor adherence.
