Patient's question:
Because my second aunt has been suffering from high blood pressure for a long time and hasn't taken her medication on time, it led to bleeding in her eyes. Although she had surgery, she was left with glaucoma. I'm very worried that it will continue to worsen, so I want to consult about whether glaucoma caused by eye bleeding can be treated?Doctor's answer:
Due to retinal hemorrhage leading to the recurrence of glaucoma, the first priority is to actively treat the retinal hemorrhage and identify the underlying disease. While managing the primary disease, applying medication or laser treatment can effectively control retinal tearing and also play a positive role in preventing the increase of intraocular pressure associated with glaucoma. Additionally, timely medication should be used to control intraocular pressure, and if conditions permit, surgical intervention can be implemented.
