Patient's question:
Now children can also develop glaucoma. How should pediatric glaucoma be treated?Doctor's answer:
Early-onset glaucoma primarily refers to acquired glaucoma, which includes primary acquired glaucoma and developmental glaucoma associated with congenital abnormalities. Surgical treatment can be adopted, including procedures such as trabeculotomy, angle recession, trabeculectomy, aqueous drainage devices, and ciliary body destruction surgery. For early glaucoma in individuals with clear corneas, angle recession is often chosen. If the cornea is not as clear, trabeculotomy may be selected.
