Patient's question:
Recovery from glaucoma surgery has been very good for 10 months, but I'm afraid of the light. What can I do? My recovery has been excellent so far. One eye can see things clearly, while the other is a bit blurry, especially when exposed to sunlight.Past treatment and effects: There is a family history. What kind of help should I receive? What medication or methods should I use to protect my eyes?
Doctor's answer:
Glaucoma surgery generally does not restore vision. That is to say, if the intraocular pressure is controlled normally after surgery and reaches a certain level of vision, the postoperative vision usually remains at that level. Medications include many nutrients and drugs that adjust the optic nerve, because the damage to the optic nerve is irreversible. Glaucoma mainly affects the optic nerve. The above is advice on this issue. It is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
