The ability to screen for any disease is based on several factors (established natural history, high prevalence rates, effective treatment, and available screening tests); however, the earliest psychosocial, clinical, or electrodiagnostic changes in glaucoma are presently unknown. Public awareness of glaucoma must be increased. Mass screenings not only aid in the detection of disease, but through their promotion by the local media, they also assist in augmenting the general public's awareness of eye health. The future of more effective screening may lie in more objective or automated testing that could be performed by lesser trained personnel.
对任何疾病进行筛查的能力取决于几个因素（既定的自然病史、高患病率、有效治疗方法以及可用的筛查测试）；然而，青光眼最早的心理社会、临床或电诊断变化目前尚不清楚。必须提高公众对青光眼的认识。大规模筛查不仅有助于疾病的检测，而且通过当地媒体的宣传，还有助于提高公众对眼部健康的认识。更有效的筛查未来可能在于更客观或自动化的测试，这些测试可以由训练程度较低的人员进行。
