The College of Optometrists has published updated learning outcomes for the three glaucoma higher qualifications it accredits: the Professional Certificate in Glaucoma, the Higher Certificate in Glaucoma, and the Professional Diploma in Glaucoma.

The College of Optometrists and The Association of Optometrists (AOP) warn the current self-declaration system puts more lives at risk of death or injury.

Primary eye care organisations have welcomed the publication of NHS England's Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) Best Practice Guidance for Glaucoma Services.
