About This Glaucoma Study in Baltimore

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the use of an FDA-cleared retinal blood flow imaging instrument called the XyCAM RI and XyCAM FC (Vasoptic Medical, Inc., Columbia, MD) in glaucoma management. The main question it aims to answer are: * Can the investigators use blood flow to discriminate between eyes with early-stage glaucoma and variable-matched controls? * Can the investigators validate that the XyCAM FC simultaneously captures both stereo fundus photography and ocular blood flow monitoring? Participants will be * measured for their blood pressure, heart rate, height, and weight * dilated with tropicamide * imaged using the XyCAM RI, fundus photography, optical coherence tomography, and standard automated perimetry * imaged using the XyCAM RI while inhaling 100% oxygen through a mask
