What to pay attention to after glaucoma surgery

Patient's question:

The patient is 36 years old. Last year, during a certain period, their eyes again experienced blurred vision, in addition to double vision. At first, they thought it was nearsightedness, but when they went to a local good hospital for a thorough examination, they were told they had glaucoma. As a result, the left eye has now become deaf, and the right eye is still undergoing active treatment. What should be paid attention to after glaucoma surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition is related to glaucoma. The onset may be related to physical fitness, poor eye habits, emotions, fatigue, overtime work, and diet. Patients with glaucoma should pay attention to preventing eye strain. After reading, watching TV, or using a computer for 30 minutes to an hour, turn your head and look far away for 10 minutes to relieve eye fatigue and prevent increased intraocular pressure. The amount of liquid intake should be appropriate, avoiding coffee and strong tea, as they can easily cause elevated intraocular pressure. Avoid smoking and alcohol, eat more fruits and vegetables, and reduce spicy foods like chili peppers and garlic. Maintain regular bowel movements.
