Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my mother is 63 years old this year. She recently felt that her vision has severely deteriorated, especially when she frequently sees hallucinations when looking at things. So we took her to the hospital for a thorough examination. The result was that the doctor said it was glaucoma. Therefore, I would like to ask how to treat glaucoma?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of glaucoma primarily involves lowering intraocular pressure. If the symptoms of glaucoma are not severe, oral medication can be used for treatment. If medication fails to reduce intraocular pressure, surgery is necessary. It is essential to actively treat glaucoma. If treatment is delayed for too long and cannot be addressed, it may lead to the recurrence of deafness. Pay attention to personal lifestyle habits and maintain a healthy diet.
