Patient's question:
My eyes have been a bit blurry, and later black spots reappeared, causing blurred vision. I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the doctor said it was glaucoma, a serious condition requiring surgery. I would like to know, how is glaucoma surgery performed?Doctor's answer:
Some elderly patients suffer from glaucoma. Pathological eye diseases or elevated intraocular pressure can cause damage to the eye nerves. Treatment can be implemented through surgery. The surgery involves performing a trabeculectomy after the patient's intraocular pressure is reduced. Nowadays, apart from laser surgery, postoperative recovery is quick, and there is no need to worry. In the future, it is important to pay attention to eye hygiene and can use some eye drops. Rest more during the day and avoid staying up late.
