What is glaucoma? 

Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that can damage your optic nerve and cause vision loss or blindness. There are different types of glaucoma, and some people may not experience any symptoms until significant damage has already occurred. That’s why regular eye exams are crucial in detecting and managing glaucoma before it progresses. 

Treatment for glaucoma     

If you’re diagnosed with glaucoma, our experienced optometrist will work with you to develop a customized treatment plan. While there is no cure for glaucoma, early treatment can help slow down or reduce its negative effects. Depending on the stage of your condition, we may suggest various types of treatment, such as prescription eye drops, laser treatment, or even surgery. If surgery is necessary, we will co-manage your care with a trusted surgeon to ensure optimal treatment outcomes and a smooth recovery.
