This research used a cross-sectional study approach. Medical reports of glaucoma patient in Eye Polyclinic of Indera Hospital of Bali Province in period January 2014 –June 2015 were used as sample.

The gender are mostly men (70%) with secondary glaucoma (37%) dominating the cases. Based on the eyes involved and intraocular presure, unilateral eye (44%) and intraocular pressure ?21 mmHg (36%)are leading the cases. The conclusion of this study is the most prevalence obtained in the age group 40-64 years, the most sex is male, type of glaucoma most is secondary glaucoma. The most involved eye is unilateral (left eye or left oculus) and most abundant intraocular pressure is ?21 mmHg in the left eye. From the profile of glaucoma patient in Eye Polyclinic of Indera Hospital of Bali Province, hope that in the future there will be further counseling about early detection of glaucoma, because glaucoma is the second lead of blindness in the world, and it is irreversible blindness.
