Can glaucoma undergo surgery?

Patient's question:

My daughter is now just starting high school. She practices very hard, but she has had glaucoma for several years. I hope she can get better, so I want to take her for surgery. Hello, can glaucoma be treated with surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Glaucoma is not recommended for laser surgery treatment. You can go to the hospital for a thorough examination to verify the condition. After the examination, surgical treatment will be performed based on the results and specific condition. Pay attention to getting proper rest, maintain sufficient deep sleep, and have a balanced diet. Avoid overworking, and do not spend too much time watching TV or using your phone to prevent eye strain. Eating plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits is also beneficial for your eyes. Pay attention to the cleanliness and hygiene of your eyes to prevent bacterial infections and other symptoms.
