- Abstract
A method for prognosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) using the mathematical apparatus of Markov processes is developed in the article. The mathematical apparatus of Markov processes with discrete states and discrete time was used to describe the course of glaucoma. According to the clinical approbation of the proposed method, the prognosis was made unmistakably in 16 surveyed patients. Prognosis was confirmed in 82% of cases. The proposed method increases the prognosis of POAG development significantly. The introduction of this method for POAG prognosis in ophthalmology practice allows improving the quality level of medical service for patients.
