Patient's question:
Accidentally developed glaucoma, and I've always wanted to find a cure for it, but it feels extremely difficult. Because some of my friends have also contracted this disease, they've spent a lot of money on treatment, and it's also very exhausting. I'd like to ask, is there any way to treat glaucoma?Doctor's answer:
Glaucoma can cause symptoms such as eye pain, headaches, nausea, and vomiting. It can severely affect the atrophy of the optic nerve, leading to vision loss and other symptoms. In the early stages, miotic eye drops like pilocarpine can be used, combined with intravenous mannitol to lower blood pressure. If the treatment is ineffective, a trabeculectomy may be performed. Postoperative outcomes vary from person to person, and it is difficult to confirm the effectiveness of the treatment. It is important to pay attention to personal lifestyle habits and maintain a healthy diet.
