Glucoma
Glaucoma Treatment by Dr. Madhumita Rout
Glaucoma is a group of eye conditions that cause damage to the optic nerve, often due to increased pressure within the eye. If left untreated, glaucoma can lead to permanent vision loss. Early detection and proper management are key to preserving your eyesight.
What is Glaucoma?
Glaucoma typically develops gradually, with no symptoms in the early stages. As pressure builds within the eye, it can damage the optic nerve, leading to vision loss, especially in peripheral vision. There are different types of glaucoma, including open-angle glaucoma and angle-closure glaucoma, each requiring specific treatment.
Risk Factors
Several factors can increase the risk of glaucoma, including age, family history, high eye pressure, and certain medical conditions. Regular eye exams are essential for early detection, especially for individuals with these risk factors.
