Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that damage the optic nerve, often linked to elevated eye pressure. Because vision loss from glaucoma is irreversible, early diagnosis is essential.
Treatment is personalised to each patient and may include medicated eye drops, laser therapy, or surgery to lower eye pressure and protect your remaining vision.
What to expect
- Procedure duration
- Consultation 30–45 min; laser or surgery varies
- Recovery time
- Eye drops: no downtime; laser: 1–2 days; surgery: 1–2 weeks
- Who is a good candidate
- Patients with elevated eye pressure, optic nerve changes, or a family history of glaucoma.
