  1. WHAT IS GLAUCOMA? HOW CAN YOU TREAT THIS DISEASE !!

  2. WHAT IS GLAUCOMA? Glaucoma is a disorder in which the optic nerve in your eye is damaged. It becomes worse with time. An increase in intraocular pressure is commonly connected with it. Glaucoma is typically inherited. It usually happens later in life. Increased intraocular pressure can injure the optic nerve, which transmits images to the brain. If untreated, glaucoma can result in irreversible visual loss or possibly total blindness within a few years. The majority of persons with glaucoma have no early signs or pain. Regularly visit your eye doctor to ensure that glaucoma is detected and treated before long-term vision loss occurs. It is impossible to restore vision that has been gone. Lowering your eye pressure, on the other hand, can help you keep your existing eyesight. The majority of glaucoma patients who follow their treatment plan and undergo frequent eye exams can keep their eyesight.

  3. WHAT ARE THE MAIN CAUSES ? Aqueous humour, the clear fluid inside your eye, normally drains through a mesh-like tube. The liquid builds up when this duct becomes clogged or when the eye produces too much fluid. Experts aren't always sure what causes the obstruction. It can, however, be inherited, meaning that it is passed on from one generation to the next. A physical or chemical injury to the eye, a serious eye infection, clogged blood vessels inside the eye, and inflammatory disorders are some of the less common causes of glaucoma. It's uncommon, but eye surgery to treat another problem can cause it. Both eyes are normally affected, but one may be more affected than the other.

  4. WHEN TO GO FOR GLAUCOMA FOR CHECK-UP ? Every person over the age of 40 should have an annual complete eye examination by an ophthalmologist. Consult an ophthalmologist if you are having any of the following symptoms: • Hypertension or Diabetes • Eye illness in the family • Injury to the eye • Antidepressants or steroids • Redness and pain in the eyes • Vision that is blurry, doubled, or diminished • Headache and nausea • Cornea cloudy • It's difficult to acclimate to the faint light. • Streaming eyes • Wet eyes

  5. HOW CAN YOU TREAT THIS DISEASE! Glaucoma treatment seeks to lower eyeball pressure and varies depending on the type of glaucoma a patient has. However, in order to manage Glaucoma, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of the disease. There are several treatments available once cancer has been detected. A combination of Eye Drops lasers, Glaucoma Implant Surgery, or Conventional Surgery could be used.
