Which one of the following is true statement of the optic nerve?* A - Big nerves can often have large cups B - Small nerves tend to develop disc edema C - The average size of the optic nerve is about 5.0 cm D - The absence of a cup is a poor prognostic sign for glaucoma 13. What type of visual field defect would you expect in a patient that has inferior rim thinning on clinical exam and an area of inferior thinning on the OCT?* A - No visual field defect B - Inferior arcuate defect C - Inferior nasal defect D - Superior nasal defect 14. In the Ocular Hypertensive Treatment Study (OHTS), which one was NOT a significant risk factor for progression?* A - IOP B - Thick cornea C - Age D - Large cup-to-disc ratio 15. What was the relationship between corneal thickness and risk of developing glaucoma in the OHTS?* A - The thinner the cornea, the greater the risk for developing glaucoma B - The thicker the cornea, the greater the risk for developing glaucoma C - The thicker the cornea, and the lower the IOP the greater the risk for developing glaucoma D - The thinner the cornea and the lower the IOP the greater the risk for developing glaucoma 16.

What color is considered normal on the RNFL analysis scans?* A - Blue B - Green C - Red D - Yellow 20. Which statement best describes ocular perfusion pressure?* A - Blood pressure + IOP = perfusion pressure B - The relative pressure of the blood leaving the eye C - The relative pressure at which the blood enters the eye D - Systolic blood pressure – diastolic blood pressure Personal InformationName* First Last Email* Phone*OE Tracker # License # Address* Street Address Address Line 2 City State / Province / Region ZIP / Postal Code AfghanistanAlbaniaAlgeriaAmerican SamoaAndorraAngolaAnguillaAntarcticaAntigua and BarbudaArgentinaArmeniaArubaAustraliaAustriaAzerbaijanBahamasBahrainBangladeshBarbadosBelarusBelgiumBelizeBeninBermudaBhutanBoliviaBonaire, Sint Eustatius and SabaBosnia and HerzegovinaBotswanaBouvet IslandBrazilBritish Indian Ocean TerritoryBrunei DarussalamBulgariaBurkina FasoBurundiCabo VerdeCambodiaCameroonCanadaCayman IslandsCentral African RepublicChadChileChinaChristmas IslandCocos IslandsColombiaComorosCongoCongo, Democratic Republic of theCook IslandsCosta RicaCroatiaCubaCuraçaoCyprusCzechiaCôte d'IvoireDenmarkDjiboutiDominicaDominican RepublicEcuadorEgyptEl SalvadorEquatorial GuineaEritreaEstoniaEswatiniEthiopiaFalkland IslandsFaroe IslandsFijiFinlandFranceFrench GuianaFrench PolynesiaFrench Southern TerritoriesGabonGambiaGeorgiaGermanyGhanaGibraltarGreeceGreenlandGrenadaGuadeloupeGuamGuatemalaGuernseyGuineaGuinea-BissauGuyanaHaitiHeard Island and McDonald IslandsHoly SeeHondurasHong KongHungaryIcelandIndiaIndonesiaIranIraqIrelandIsle of ManIsraelItalyJamaicaJapanJerseyJordanKazakhstanKenyaKiribatiKorea, Democratic People's Republic ofKorea, Republic ofKuwaitKyrgyzstanLao People's Democratic RepublicLatviaLebanonLesothoLiberiaLibyaLiechtensteinLithuaniaLuxembourgMacaoMadagascarMalawiMalaysiaMaldivesMaliMaltaMarshall IslandsMartiniqueMauritaniaMauritiusMayotteMexicoMicronesiaMoldovaMonacoMongoliaMontenegroMontserratMoroccoMozambiqueMyanmarNamibiaNauruNepalNetherlandsNew CaledoniaNew ZealandNicaraguaNigerNigeriaNiueNorfolk IslandNorth MacedoniaNorthern Mariana IslandsNorwayOmanPakistanPalauPalestine, State ofPanamaPapua New GuineaParaguayPeruPhilippinesPitcairnPolandPortugalPuerto RicoQatarRomaniaRussian FederationRwandaRéunionSaint BarthélemySaint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da CunhaSaint Kitts and NevisSaint LuciaSaint MartinSaint Pierre and MiquelonSaint Vincent and the GrenadinesSamoaSan MarinoSao Tome and PrincipeSaudi ArabiaSenegalSerbiaSeychellesSierra LeoneSingaporeSint MaartenSlovakiaSloveniaSolomon IslandsSomaliaSouth AfricaSouth Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsSouth SudanSpainSri LankaSudanSurinameSvalbard and Jan MayenSwedenSwitzerlandSyria Arab RepublicTaiwanTajikistanTanzania, the United Republic ofThailandTimor-LesteTogoTokelauTongaTrinidad and TobagoTunisiaTurkmenistanTurks and Caicos IslandsTuvaluTürkiyeUS Minor Outlying IslandsUgandaUkraineUnited Arab EmiratesUnited KingdomUnited StatesUruguayUzbekistanVanuatuVenezuelaViet NamVirgin Islands, BritishVirgin Islands, U.S.Wallis and FutunaWestern SaharaYemenZambiaZimbabweÅland Islands Country Payment InformationPromotional Code Glaucoma Puzzle: When the Pieces Don’t Always Fit | TQ Credit*After 5/5/2023, pricing will increase to $30.
