Patient's question:
Here is the English translation of the provided text:"Baby was born not long ago, eyes always tearful, and always likes to cry. Please ask, can someone with 30 years of angle-closure glaucoma, aged 57, have surgery?"
Doctor's answer:
Angle-closure glaucoma patients have experienced vision loss again, proving that the optic nerve has been compromised and optic nerve atrophy has recurred. This condition is irreversible and cannot be fully restored. If the intraocular pressure is normal at the moment, surgery is not necessary. If the intraocular pressure is high and cannot be controlled under normal circumstances, surgery can be considered. Surgery can only alleviate the symptoms of pain and does not guarantee stable vision.
