If IOP is over 32mmHg you should make an emergency referral

If you are considering referring for IOP alone with no other signs of glaucoma, repeat measures should be done, see here.

For Sandwell or Walsall GPs, all other referrals for suspect glaucoma should be made on a GOS18 via the GP.

It is good practice to ask the patient to contact your practice if they haven’t heard in the expected time frame and document this on your record. If a patient contacts you then you should endeavour to chase the referral with the GP.
