Treatments

There are a lot of different ways to treat glaucoma. There is no cure for glaucoma yet but it can be controlled with drugs like eye drops or a pill that you take once a day.

The treatment of glaucoma is aimed at reducing intraocular pressure. The most common first line treatment of glaucoma is usually prescription eye drops that must be taken regularly. In some cases, systemic medications, laser treatment, or other surgery may be required. While there is no cure as yet for glaucoma, early diagnosis and continuing treatment can preserve eyesight.
