Patient's question:
A few days ago, when my mom and I went to my uncle's house to play, I noticed that his eyes were a bit abnormal, and he could see things very blurry. I asked my mom, "Why is this happening?" She said, "My uncle has glaucoma and needs to have surgery. Is glaucoma surgery painful?"Doctor's answer:
During glaucoma surgery, a local anesthetic method is used, so generally there will be no significant pain. However, the patient may still have some sensation, but this pain is usually tolerable. The pain is relatively mild and not severe, so there is no need to worry too much. If the pain becomes more severe, some blood-activating medications can be used to help alleviate it.
