The forth meeting of the Organizing Committee of the Glaucoma
Society of the International Congress of Ophthalmology was held on
March 10-13,1990 in Bali, Indonesia. Traditionally this meeting is
attended by committee mem- bers and invited experts and precedes
the International Congress of Ophthal- mology under the auspices of
the International Council of Ophthalmology. The scientific format
was structured by Stephen M. Drance, OC, MD,lVan- couver (President
of the Society from 1982-1990) and John Hetherington, JR, MD,ISan
Francisco (General Secretary of the Society from 1982-1990). The
local organization was in the very competent assistance of Josef
Kadi, an ophthalmologist from Surabaya, Indonesia. Glaucoma Update
IV comprises forty presentations from this meeting high- lighting
the latest progress in global glaucomatology. Basic research
related to the pathomechanisms of the disease, new diagnostic
approaches and treat- ment modalities contribute to the best
possible care of our patients. The ob- jectives of the Society are
to share the frontiers of knowledge presented in these proceeding
with everyone dealing with glaucoma patients all over the world.
The Society is indebted to Chibret International/Rahway, Allergan
Pharma- ceuticals/Irvine, and Otsuka Pharmaceuticals/Tokushima for
support of the meeting and to Chibret Pharmaceuticals GmbH Munich
for supporting the printing expenses of this volume.
The second Committee Meeting of the Glaucoma Society of the
International Congress of Ophthalmology was held in Carmel Valley
ICalifornia from October 22-27, 1982. Traditionally this meeting
was closed and preceded the International Congress of Ophthalmology
in San Francisco. A group of roughly 80 experts on glaucoma -
active members of the committee and invited guests - exchanged
latest scientific experiences on the progress in pathophysiology,
diagnosis and treatment of the glaucomas. The aim ofthe meeting was
to provide quite informal presentations grouped around main topics
and ample, lively discussions. The scientific and local
organization was in the hands of Jack Hetherington Jr.lSan
Francisco and Stephen M. Drance/Vancouver. It is the sincere wish
of the society to express warmest thanks to Valerie Hetherington
who took in a most charming and efficient way much of the burden of
the local organization. The idea of pre-circulation of all
scientific presentations 2-3 months before the meeting to all
participants and guests proved to be effective with respect to
fruitful and stimulating discussions at the site of the meeting. We
thank all participants for their co-operation in sending their
manuscripts in time. The society is indebted to Chibret Int.
Pharmaceutical Company for generous support of this publication.
The International Council of Ophthalmology agreed to the creation
of an International Glaucoma Committee, which should have a limited
number of members, 40 at a maximum. This committee will hold a
closed meeting every 4 years on the occasion of the International
Congress of Ophthalmology and will report to the International
Council on the practical and clinical advances in glaucoma
detection and treatment. This report will be published in the
proceedings of the International Congress. The committee will
advise and direct the activities of the International Glaucoma
Society, which will hold a glaucoma symposion prior to each
International Congress of Oph thalmology and which will be open to
anyone interested in glaucoma. This is now the first meeting of the
committee. W hen I look at the program and the names of the
speakers, I am convinced that it will be very fruitful. This is my
most sincere wish. I should like to thank very warmly Prof.
Leydhecker for preparing the organization of this group and the
scientific program and Prof. Mishima, Prof. Kitazawa, and all of
their staff for having so beautifully organized this symposion,
which will be very successful, and for having received us with such
generous hospitality. I am very grateful to each of the members of
the International Glaucoma Committee and to each of our Japanese
friends involved in this symposion."
