Glaucoma Diagnosis & Treatment

Glaucoma is an eye problem that slowly damages vision. Many people do not notice symptoms in the early stages, but if glaucoma is not detected and treated on time, it can  lead to permanent vision loss.

Tests Used to Detect Glaucoma Early

Finding glaucoma early is very important to save vision. We use safe and advanced eye tests, including:

Eye pressure test
To check pressure inside the eye
Side vision test
To find early loss of side vision
OCT scan
To check the health of the optic nerve
These tests help us detect glaucoma early and closely monitor changes over time.

Glaucoma Treatment Options

Eye drops Tablets Laser treatment Surgery

The aim of treatment is simple: keep eye pressure under control and protect vision, while allowing patients to continue normal daily life.

Long-Term Care for Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a lifelong condition and needs regular follow-up. We monitor eye pressure and vision closely and adjust treatment when needed. With proper care and timely treatment, many patients are able to maintain useful vision for life.

Types of Glaucoma We Treat

Open-angle glaucoma The most common type, develops slowly over time
Angle-closure glaucoma Sudden rise in eye pressure, needs urgent treatment
Normal-pressure glaucoma Vision damage even when eye pressure seems normal
Secondary glaucoma Caused by injury, medicines, or other eye problems
Congenital glaucoma Rare type present from birth or early childhood

Protecting Your Vision for Life

Our focus is on early testing, personalized treatment, and continuous care to protect your eyesight, keep the optic nerve healthy, and maintain a good quality of life.

2. How is glaucoma diagnosed? +
Glaucoma is diagnosed through a complete eye check-up, including eye pressure testing, side vision testing, and scans of the optic nerve.
3. Can glaucoma be cured? +
Glaucoma cannot be cured, but it can be controlled. With proper treatment and regular check-ups, most people can protect their vision.
4. What treatments are available for glaucoma? +
