Glaucoma Surgery
Depending on the type and stage of glaucoma, treatment options include medications, laser treatment, and surgery. Laser surgery may be required in some types of glaucoma to increase the drainage of eye fluid called aqueous humour. This type of treatment is done by a glaucoma specialist in our hospital and is a simple daycare procedure. Medicines for glaucoma are given in the form of eye drops which will maintain eye pressure in normal range. This is very important to delay the progression or prevent optic nerve damage. In some cases, only medicines may not be helpful, and hence surgery may be required in such patients. Glaucoma surgery is done mainly to increase outflow and hence reduce pressure. This is done by our specialists, and we have a good record of successful treatment by surgeries.
