Patient's question:
There is an elderly person I have met who was carefully examined and diagnosed with glaucoma. However, he is also quite old, and I am worried that he might lose his hearing. So, I would like to ask, how long does it generally take to treat glaucoma?Doctor's answer:
The treatment time required for glaucoma depends on the severity of the patient's condition. If the symptoms are mild, the condition can be cured within a few months. However, if the condition is more severe, it may take several years to improve. This is not certain and needs to be analyzed based on the specific condition of the patient. If the patient is older, the treatment time may be longer.
