Abstract
The large selection of drugs for reduction of intraocular pressure expands the possibilities of drug treatment of glaucoma. At the same time, it creates certain difficulties for doctors preparing a complex, multicomponent scheme of several names of drugs. The mobile application "GlauHint" was developed for doctors dealing with glaucoma treatment. It provides technical assistance in drawing up the correct drug therapy regimen. The application allows checking the treatment that the patient is receiving and making corrections to it, as well as comprising the right combination of drugs, excluding the coincidence of active substances of the same class.
