The main epidemiologic characteristics of primary angle glaucoma in Tunisia were studied in 5000 patients of Pr. AYED's external consultation at the National Institute of Ophthalmology. It appeared that POAG is a frequent and serious disease in Tunisia: a true problem of public health. The importance of the early diagnosis based essentially on a systematic intraocular pressure test together with the examination of optic disc and the visual field investigation using automated perimetry in suspected cases is discussed.
