Can secondary glaucoma heal on its own?

Patient's question:

My neighbor's aunt suddenly lost her eyesight recently. A few days ago, she was still able to see her, and it was quite painful for her. She had a very severe headache and also experienced dizziness. Sometimes, when she walked, she would collapse to the ground and needed someone to help her walk properly. The hospital diagnosed it as secondary glaucoma. Can secondary glaucoma heal on its own? No need to come to pressure, please.

Doctor's answer:

Secondary glaucoma is characterized by a sharp drop in intraocular pressure accompanied by mild ciliary body inflammation, and it cannot heal on its own. It is recommended to seek immediate medical attention at a reputable hospital for thorough examination and treatment based on the results. Rest frequently during the day and maintain sufficient deep sleep, avoiding staying up late to prevent eye fatigue. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables to replenish vitamins, maintain a proper work schedule, and avoid staying up late.
