Glaucoma Treatment: Preserving Vision and Managing Intraocular Pressure

Glaucoma is a chronic eye disease that affects the optic nerve, which is responsible for transmitting visual information from the eye to the brain. It is often characterized by increased intraocular pressure (IOP) due to a build-up of fluid in the eye. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to irreversible vision loss and even blindness.

What are the Causes of Glaucoma?

It is primarily attributed to increased intraocular pressure (IOP) due to a buildup of fluid in the eye. This can occur when the eye's drainage system becomes blocked or less efficient, leading to a gradual damage of the optic nerve. Other factors that may contribute to glaucoma include genetics, age, ethnicity, and certain medical conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure

What are the symptoms of eye pressure?

Symptoms of eye pressure may manifest as eye pain, redness, discomfort, and vision
changes, such as blurred vision or halos around lights.

What are the early signs of Glaucoma?

The early signs of glaucoma can vary, but some common early symptoms include: Gradual loss of peripheral vision, blurred or hazy vision difficulty adjusting to low light conditions, increased sensitivity to glare, frequent changes in glasses or contact lens prescription. It's important to note that glaucoma is often asymptomatic in the early stages, which is why regular eye exams are crucial for early detection and treatment.

Glaucoma Diagnosis

Glaucoma diagnosis typically involves a comprehensive eye examination that includes several tests and evaluations:

Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Measurement: This test measures the pressure inside the eye using a device called a tonometer. Elevated IOP is a common indicator of glaucoma.

Optic Nerve Evaluation: The ophthalmologist examines the optic nerve using a special instrument called an ophthalmoscope. They look for signs of damage or abnormalities that may indicate glaucoma.

Visual Field Test: This test assesses the peripheral vision by measuring the ability to see objects in different areas of the visual field. It helps detect any loss of vision caused by glaucoma.

Gonioscopy: This test examines the drainage angle of the eye to determine if it is open or closed, which can help classify the type of glaucoma.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT): This imaging test uses light waves to create detailed cross-sectional images of the optic nerve and retina. It helps assess the thickness of the nerve fibers and detect any signs of glaucoma damage.

What are the options in Glaucoma Treatment

Eye Drops: Medicated eye drops are often the first line of treatment for glaucoma. These drops help to lower intraocular pressure by either reducing the production of fluid in the eye or improving its drainage.

Oral Medications: In some cases, oral medications may be prescribed to lower intraocular pressure. These medications work by reducing the production of fluid in the eye or increasing its outflow.

Laser Therapy: Laser treatment can be used to improve the drainage of fluid from the eye or to decrease its production. Common laser procedures for glaucoma include trabeculoplasty, iridotomy, and cyclophotocoagulation.

Surgical Interventions: If medications and laser therapy are not effective in controlling intraocular pressure, surgical procedures may be recommended. These procedures aim to create a new drainage channel or improve the existing one to allow better fluid outflow.

Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery (MIGS): MIGS procedures are newer surgical techniques that are less invasive than traditional glaucoma surgeries. They aim to improve the outflow of fluid from the eye and reduce intraocular pressure.
