Glaucoma Management

Glaucoma management involves controlling intraocular pressure (IOP) to prevent optic nerve damage and vision loss. Treatments include eye drops, which reduce IOP, laser therapy to improve aqueous humor drainage, and surgical interventions like trabeculectomy or minimally invasive procedures. Regular monitoring through eye exams and visual field tests is vital to track disease progression and treatment effectiveness. Lifestyle adjustments, such as managing systemic conditions, complement medical interventions. Personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs optimize vision preservation and quality of life.
